Kozhikode: The postmortem report of popular Keralite vlogger Rifa Mehnu, who was found dead in Dubai under mysterious circumstances, could be submitted to the police on Monday.

The police reckon that the scientific tests can help unravel the mystery shrouding her death. The cops would also record the statements of more people, including those who had attended the funeral.

Dr Lisa John, head of the forensic department of the Kozhikode Medical College Hospital, conducted the postmortem.

Some marks were reportedly found around Rifa's neck during the examination. The chemical test of the internal organs will also be held at the forensic lab of the Kozhikode Medical College on Monday to check if there are any traces of poison in the body.

Her parents alleged in complaint to police that harassment by her husband Mehnas (Mehnu) led to her death. The parents further alleged that Mehnas' friends in Dubai had also been involved in the incident. Following the parents' complaint, the body was exhumed for postmortem on Saturday.
