Ready to face inquiry panel on Amma's death: Apollo Hospitals

Many questions were raised against the hospital management for not being transparent on the treatment given to the late chief minister

Chennai: Apollo Hospitals Chairman Prathap C Reddy re-iterated his statement regarding the inquiry in former Chief Minister J. Jayalalitha's death saying that he is ready to co-operate with the special inquiry commission probing the circumstances leading to the death of former Chief Minister J. Jayalalithaa.

“Apollo Hospitals is ready to face any inquiry concerning former Chief Minister Jayalalitha's hospitalisation and does not hesitate to share any documents or details concerning the same,” he said while speaking to reporters on the sidelines of an event in the city on Thursday.

Prathap Reddy had earlier said that the adequate treatment was given to Jayalalithaa at the hospital and doctors do not fear any summons or inquiry as best was done to restore her health but unfortunately could not save her. “We will co-operate with the authorities for the inquiry if called upon to do so,” Prathap Reddy told reporters.

Many questions were raised against the hospital management for not being transparent on the treatment given to the late chief minister. Former CM was treated at the hospital for 75 days before she passed away on December 5 last year.

A special commission headed by Justice A. Arumughaswamy is probing the circumstances leading to the death of former Chief Minister Jayalalithaa.
