Docs say Jaya did not die of slow poisoning
Chennai:14.11.2018
Dr Ramesh Venkatraman of Apollo Hospitals, one of the key doctors involved in late chief minister J Jayalalithaa’s treatment in 2016, on Tuesday debunked a minister’s claim that she may have died of slow poisoning.
During cross-examination at the Justice (retd) A Arumughaswamy Commission, Venkatraman was asked if anything had indicated as alleged by minister Dindigul C Srinivasan recently.
Sources quoted Venkatraman as saying she was treated only for the host of ailments she was admitted for. A pulmonologist, Dr R Narasimhan, said he had asked for Jayalalithaa’s voice to be recorded and that she even asked him when she would be discharged.
V K Sasikala’s lawyer Raja Senthoor Pandian submitted a petition to the commission calling for all records or evidence that may be in the possession of a private channel that telecast a programme over the weekend alleging mystery in Jayalalithaa’s death. S Parthasarathy, counsel for the commission, said the petition would be heard on Wednesday.
Stating that ministers were making claims without sharing evidence, Pandian told reporters they would be filing a complaint with the Governor against these ministers. Maruthu Alagaraj of AIADMK mouthpiece Namathu Amma was questioned for three hours by Pandian, sources said. TNN
