Fiona Mackeown, mother of British teenager Scarlett Eden Keeling, will be arriving in India on Saturday.

“She has few issues to be discussed with the local authorities, including Scarlett’s organs which were found missing during the third autopsy,” Fiona’s advocate Vikram Varma said.

Scarlett was allegedly drugged, raped and left to die at Goa’s popular Anjuna beach on February 18.

Fiona, who was accompanying her on Goa tour, had launched a massive campaign seeking justice to her daughter which saw two locals being arrested for the offence.

“If government fails to hand over Scarlett’s organs to her mother, she has kept an option open to move to the high court,” Varma said.

The UK forensic experts had said Scarlett’s stomach, kidney and uterus were missing after the second autopsy.

Fiona had left for UK with Scarlett’s body on March 30 and UK authorities are conducting the third autopsy on the teenager’s body.

Varma said the British eye witness Michael Mannion’s look out notice issue will also be discussed with the authorities.

Mannion has already deposed before the investigating authorities and is waiting for a look out notice to be lifted to go back home.
