One of the doctor's relatives claimed that she often faced pressure from police to change post-mortem reports and also to modify medical test reports of arrested persons brought to the government hospital. According to the doctor’s purported reply, personal assistants of an MP once asked her to speak to him over the phone, after which the MP accused her of refusing to issue a fitness certificate to an arrested person (which would have enabled police to seek his custody) because she belonged to Beed. Dhas also demanded an independent inquiry into her death and action against those who did not take cognisance of her complaints in the past. The woman doctor, meanwhile, was cremated at her native place in Beed’s Wadwani tehsil on Friday night. Majalgaon MLA and NCP leader Prakash Solanke met her family members, who demanded a Special Investigation Team to probe the case. She was mentally strong and would not have committed suicide unless she had faced severe harassment, they said. The woman’s two cousins, also doctors, alleged that the hospital administration deliberately assigned her post-mortem duties only to harass her. Dr Santosh Hindole, General Secretary, Maharashtra Gazetted Medical Officers Association, extended the association’s support to the family and demanded strict action against the accused. According to the woman’s family, she wanted to do an MD course and was preparing for it. The loan of Rs 3 lakh taken for her MBBS course was yet to be repaid, her uncle told PTI. “Her father is a farmer; he is not an educated person. I am a teacher and I took her to Beed for schooling. She did not want to stop at MBBS but wanted to pursue MD in medicine, ENT or non-clinical branches,” he said.
