-—in the government promised to allow the body to be exhumed if the party asks for it-—

I saw that earlier and it struck me! Wouldn’t it be a cause of major public unrest to disturb the body? I wondered why they would make that offer unless it was so that people would say, “Oh no! That won’t be necessary. We’ll accept your explanation, even if we don’t believe it.”

I honestly don’t know what the normal cultural response would be to exhuming a body in Islamic/Pakistani context. Rapid burial I can understand and recognize.

Maybe the offer was a bluff, but the other side of the issue is calling it.
