Kolkata man seeks to collect dead son’s frozen sperm, this is what the court said

Calcutta High Court has refused to entertain the plea of a man seeking the right to collect his dead son's frozen sperm. The court maintained that the only other person, apart from the deceased, having any right to it is his wife. Dismissing the plea, the court said that the petitioner does not have any "fundamental right" to permission for collecting the preserved sperm of his son merely by dint of his father-son relationship.
