A man, who had preserved his daughter's body following her alleged suicide over a month ago, today cremated her after a fresh postmortem was conducted by a panel of doctors here.
The postmortem was conducted by a panel of three doctors in the presence of investigating officer from GB Nagar and district administration officials, police said.
Vishamber Singh, Ritu Yadav's father, expressed satisfaction with the postmortem and later cremated the body.

Ritu had alleged in her suicide note that some girls were harassing and beating her.
An FIR was registered against four girls at Kasna police station in Gautam Budh Nagar on the complaint of the deceased's father.
