New Delhi: Sushant Singh Rajput’s family has written to the CBI to demand the formation of a fresh medical board to review the autopsy and viscera reports by a Mumbai hospital.
The family, through its lawyers, has also accused the chief of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) forensic team of being “unethical” and “unprofessional”.
A few days ago, the team of forensic experts from AIIMS Delhi had rejected the theory of poisoning and strangling peddled by the actor’s family. The AIIMS panel had concluded their examination and closed the file after giving a conclusive medico-legal opinion to the CBI, NDTV reported.
The family’s lawyers, Varun Singh and Vikas Singh, in the letter to the CBI chief, slammed Dr. Sudhir Gupta, who heads the AIIMS panel and forensic department, and accused him of “selectively” leaking reports to the media.
“The conduct of Dr. Sudhir Gupta is unethical, unprofessional, in contravention of government service conduct rules and MCI guidelines. This criminal misadventure on his part has undermined public trust in a premier institution like AIIMS. It has created doubts in the minds of millions of people about the fairness of the investigation.” the letter read.
“…this matter needs to be referred to another forensic team to be constituted by CBI by picking up some of the best names in the field from the different hospital so that a fair and proper assessment takes place…,” the family said in the letter.
Both the AIIMS panel as well as the Central Forensic Lab have found no foul play in Sushant’s untimely death, sources told NDTV.
