Miscarriage at 8 months - no autopsy

When I was in Abu Dhabi in 08, my GF's friend has a miscarriage at 8 months. corniche hospital didnt do an autopsy, they disposed of the body with whatever method they use.

Why on earth wouldn't they have done an autopsy at 8 months?

Why didn't your girlfriend's friend demand an autopsy?

there are or were no paediatric pathologists in the UAE, aren't post mortems haram?

I believe she asked them to do it multiple times. I will find out if they gave a reason. She was told they don't do them in Abu Dhabi.

Because of no pathologists or because the medical system sucks balls?
