MRI POSTMORTEM FACILITY FOR MUSLIM COMMUNITY After a long struggle and collective effort by all, in particularly LCM, Cllr Aslam Khan, bro Arshad from Bedford, we have secured a very important concession by the coroner regarding postmortems. Please note a postmortem becomes necessary where a GP or the Hospital cannot verify the cause of death. In these cases the coroner becomes involved. In such instances the family can approach the coroners office and request a MRI scan rather than the traditional surgical type of postmortem. Even though the coroner still has discretion over the matter, he should be more flexible and accommodating to the family’s request for a MRI scan. The MRI option is now available to the community as a pilot scheme – the pilot scheme is running for 6 months initially to see how much need is there for such a service. It is important all Masajids inform their congregation about the MRI Scan being available via Friday Khutbas. Please take every opportunity to make regular announcements at gatherings, events or public meetings where Muslims are present. Please note that if this service is under used due to lack of awareness or other reason the coroner may withdraw the service due to lack of demand/use. Below are the two funeral services the Coroner has identified this service can be accessed through: Coroner’s office: 01582 394264 PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO AS MANY MUSLIM BROTHERS & SISTERS AS POSSIBLE
