New Delhi While Delhi is slowly getting back on its feet after the serial blasts, anguished relatives of the dead and injured in Saturday?s attacks spent another anxious day.
Some searched for their loved ones, others kept vigil outside hospitals where the wounded are being treated.
Nine unclaimed bodies are still lying in the Safdarjung hospital. For each body there are more than one claimant and the police is in dilemma.
Many people were still trying to trace dead or missing relatives and friends.
Family of Utkarsh Gupta, who died in the Sarojini Nagar blast on October 29, fought over the charred body.
A tussle over his body has started as his family's claim is being contested by another family from Jhajjhar.
The family from Jhajjhar says the body is that of Nitin Singh son of an Air force officer, not of Utkarsh?s.
Utkarsh's family sought police help to solve the problem but they are disappointed at the treatment being meted out.
According to relatives of Utkarsh, the police called them for a DNA test, but there is no response from them.
In another morgue, two anguished families fought over the charred bodies of two children, a 7-year-old girl named Maitreyi and a 3-year-old girl named Priyanka, who died in the Sarojini Nagar blast.
It was the photographs taken just few hours before the fateful evening, which have proved to be of little help for Maitreyi's family in identifying the badly charred corpses.
DNA testing is the way police has found to settle such claims but even that is grossly mismanaged.
