NEW DELHI, ⁠July 15 (Reuters) - India's aircraft accident ⁠investigating body has conducted a ‌psychological autopsy and evaluation and has received the psychologist’s final report as ​part of its probe ⁠into last year’s ⁠deadly Air India crash, a court ⁠filing ‌showed.

The filing did not identify whose psychological ⁠autopsy was conducted or disclose any ​findings ‌on the crash of the ⁠Boeing ​787 that killed 260 people shortly after takeoff from Ahmedabad, India.

India's ⁠Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau ​said it had prepared a cockpit voice recorder transcript. An analysis ⁠of data retrieved in late May from an engine monitoring unit was still awaited and ​an assessment of ⁠organisational factors remained in progress, ​it added, without providing ‌more details.
