In the video, Dr Kafeel also accused the police of causing unnecessary delay in treatment. “First they insisted on taking him to Sadar Hospital for medicolegal and then for a second medicolegal at the BRD Medical College. When we resisted, five jeeps of policemen came and forcefully escorted us to the medical college. The police wasted precious time from 10 pm to 2.30 am,” he added. Shalabh Mathur, SSP, Gorakhpur told ANI, however, said that no written complaint has been filed by the family yet. Dr Kafeel has been accused of stealing oxygen cylinders from BRD Medical College when several children died due to lack of oxygen on 11-12 August 2017. He was granted bail in April 2018 due to insufficient evidence against the doctor. With inputs from PTI
