https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=293413 A court-directed further inquiry into Judge Loya's death was rejected because the contemporaneous record consistently showed chest pain, hospital treatment, and death from coronary artery insufficiency. The inquiry under Section 174 CrPC is confined to ascertaining the apparent cause of death, and an inquest report is not substantive evidence. The Court found no material to discredit the official record or the statements of the accompanying judges, and refused to rely on newspaper reports or collateral allegations to create suspicion.
