The cousin of a woman doctor who allegedly died by suicide in Maharashtra’s Satara has called for a Special Investigation Team (SIT) probe, claiming that she had faced “immense political and police pressure” for over a year and was forced to falsify postmortem and fitness reports.

Speaking to ANI, the cousin of the deceased doctor claimed that she had been subjected to harassment for more than a year and was being pressured to manipulate official reports.

“She was under a lot of political and police pressure for the last year. Medical staff at the hospital are also involved. Everyone forced her to make wrong postmortem reports and forge fitness certificates. She was being forced to perform more and more postmortems despite other officers being present at the hospital,” the cousin said.
