Notes on a Scandal
S02E05: Body of Lies
ADVISORY: This episode contains mentions of suicide. Listener discretion is advised.
How do you connect the dots of a story where so much is missing? Why is there blood at the crime scene? And why did Shahnaz remain unconscious all night -- and is that even possible? Saba and Tooba attempt to understand the forensic investigation into Mustafa Zaidi's death with Dr Summaiya Syed Tariq, the Additional Police Surgeon at Karachi's Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Hospital and a forensic consultant.
This episode features condensed quotes from an interview with Dr Summaiya Syed Tariq.
