A Chennai-based NGO has moved the Supreme Court seeking an investigation into the death of deceased Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa, reported ANI. The organisation, Telugu Yuva Sakshi, has filed a Public Interest Litigation urging the top court to order a probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation into Jayalalithaa’s treatment at Apollo Hospital. The petitioner has also asked for medical documents regarding the deceased leader be seized.

This is not the first time that questions have been raised about Jayalalithaa’s treatment and subsequent death. Tamil actor Gautami Tadimalla on December 9 said the mystery shrouding late chief minister’s last days hinted at a conspiracy. In a blog addressed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, she had raised questions regarding the “secrecy” around Jayalalithaa’s 75-day stay at Chennai’s Apollo Hospital and her treatment.

Why was Jayalalithaa treated in isolation, and who made decisions about her treatment, the popular actor had asked Modi in the post. Gautami had added that supporters of the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam also wanted answers, and it was their right to be informed about their democratically elected leaders.

“Her demise is all the more tragic and unsettling because of the circumstances over the past few months and the sheer volume of unanswered questions about our late chief minister’s hospitalisation, treatment, reported recovery and very sudden passing,” she wrote. “There had been a near total blanketing of information regarding these matters.”

Jayalalithaa was admitted to Chennai’s Apollo Hospital on September 22 after she complained of fever and dehydration. During her stay, the facility had released a number of bulletins that gave only a sketchy idea of Jayalalithaa’s health. She died days after the AIADMK announced that their party chief had recovered and could be released any day to return to her chief ministerial duties. Jayalalithaa died on December 5, a day after she suffered a cardiac arrest.
