SHILLONG: Police have written to NEIGRIHMS to allow interrogation of arrested Bangladeshi politician Salahuddin Ahmed in the presence of doctors.
The move came after doctors from NEIGRIHMS denied a request from the police to interrogate Ahmed citing his weak health.
East Khasi Hills Superintendent of Police M. Kharkrang on Thursday said doctors from NEIGRIHMS had sent a letter to the police citing that Ahmed’s condition was weak and he was not in a position to be questioned.
Police want to interrogate Ahmed in order to file the charge sheet in the court at the earliest.
The focus of police interrogation will be on how he landed up in Shillong.
“It is only after proper interrogation and investigation that we would be able to learn how Salahuddin landed up in Shillong,” said the district police chief.
Meanwhile, Dr. A.G. Ahangar, Director, NEIGRIHMS, said the board of doctors will meet on Friday to decide on Ahmed’s treatment after all investigations and tests are carried out.
“We have some reports ready and some are awaited,” Dr. Ahangar said.
