In a startling revelation, Prathap C Reddy, chairman of Apollo Hospitals said that all CCTV cameras were switched off during the 75-day stay of former Tamil Nadu chief minister J Jayalalithaa in the Chennai hospital’s ICU.“Unfortunately they (CCTVs) were switched off. Jayalalithaa got admitted and one ICU was completely occupied only by her. So they removed the footage because they did not want everyone to be watching,” Reddy told reporters on the sidelines of an event held in Chennai on Thursday, as reported by the Indian Express. Reddy also stated that no visitors were allowed to meet the ailing chief minister.Reddy also said that the hospital had submitted all relevant documents to the Justice A Arumughaswamy Commission of inquiry probing Jayalalithaa’s death, reports the Times of India.It is, however, not clear who ordered switching off of the CCTV cameras.The Apollo Hospital Chairman’s comments come a few days after Jayalalithaa’s close aide, Sasikala Natarajan, submitted an affidavit saying that the former AIADMK supremo had been videographed four times in Apollo Hospital, Chennai. She also claimed that two key AIADMK leaders had met her during her stay in the hospital.Jayalalithaa, 69, was admitted to Apollo on September 22, 2016. She is said to have suffered a cardiac arrest on December 4, and was declared dead the next day.The former CM’s death has raised quite a few questions, some even alleging foul play, from various quarters, leading to a probe being ordered by chief minister Edappadi Palaniswami into the circumstances leading to her death.
