New Delhi: After interrogating several junior medicos for nearly a week, the police quizzed three senior doctors of Apollo hospital who had attended to Rahul Mahajan, in connection with the high-profile drug abuse case on Tuesday.
Internal medicine specialist Prasad Rao, who headed the five-member team, hospital's director of medical services Anupam Sibal and Mukund Pandey were quizzed in detail about the treatment given to Rahul, police sources said.
The sources said "police want to know whether Rahul's condition at the time of his admission in the hospital in the wee hours of June two warranted ventilator support and why was he kept in the ICU for over four days."
They also seek detailed answers on the various medical tests conducted on Rahul, his condition during his stay in the ICU and the type of food he had during the period.
Investigators had earlier claimed that they have established that "the vital parameters of Rahul at the time of his admission did not warrant ventilator support and it was done at the behest of the hospital top brass."
The police plan to interrogate all employees involved, directly or indirectly, in providing treatment to Rahul and have so far quizzed over 25 doctors and staffers employees out of the nearly 50-odd summoned by them.
An FIR was registered against Apollo on June nine for giving false information to police officials in the case, a day after a city court directed it to take action against the premier private hospital.
