Turns out, reports of toxicology tests done on the body of veteran actor Sridevi, can lead to further delay in sending back her mortal remains to India from Dubai, where the 54-year-old actress died on Saturday.
"The toxicology reports of tests done on blood and organs of Sridevi are expected to reveal the exact cause of her death. If the reports do not conclusively confirm a natural cause such as the reported heart attack, there will be further investigations, which would mean even more delays for sending her body home", sources told Gulf News, a leading English daily published in Dubai.
