A panel of doctors of the State-owned Goa Medical College hospital constituted on Wednesday morning has begun conducting the post-mortem of the body of Mumbai-based costume designer Isha Mantry, who died after attending an Electronic Dance Music (EDM) festival in Goa on Monday night.

The police have registered a case of an unnatural death. The report of autopsy is expected by Thursday, a senior police official said here on Wednesday.

A panel of doctors is formed in such a case to avert any doubts or controversies over the autopsy report of a sensitive case like the present one, said the police official.
