A day after the Madras High Court raised doubts over Jayalalithaa’s death, political parties in Tamil Nadu on Friday sought a detailed report from the Centre and the state government on the treatment given to the late chief minister when she was in hospital for more than two months.
DMK treasurer and leader of the Opposition M K Stalin demanded a judicial probe into the “mystery” behind the death of Jayalalithaa.
Referring to the high court observation related to Jayalalithaa’s death, Stalin said the state and the central governments should come out with a detailed statement and release medical reports of her death.
PMK founder S Ramadoss demanded a probe by the CBI into Jayalalithaa’s death. Referring to reports about amputation of her legs, he said if that was the case, it was not known whether the consent of Jayalalithaa’s blood relatives was sought before the surgery.
