Update: Investigation into MRI-related death hits a roadblock

The investigation into the MRI-related death of 32-year-old Rajesh Maruti Maru in Mumbai, India, continues, but police say they lack video evidence of the incident.

According to a new report from The Hindu, police investigators explained that they have footage from outside the area where Maru died, but it isn’t necessarily helping them with the case.

One reason footage is so important in this case, according to the report, is that Maru’s family say the heavy door of the room was wide open.
