Cops tell crime branch they did not take Vijay Singh's health issue seriously as others named in separate NCs on the same day had said the same thing

Vijay Singh
The Mumbai Crime Branch (CB), investigating the alleged custodial death of Vijay Singh at Wadala TT police station, has recorded about 20 statements of police officers, which includes those who have been suspended, and that of the complainant couple as well. However, none of the versions have revealed anything related to custodial torture of the deceased.
According to the CB, the primary investigation points at medical negligence, as the on-duty cops failed to provide him immediate medical help when he was complaining of chest pain. Some of the cops even said that they did not take the matter seriously as 13 non-cognizable complaints were filed the same day, of which four to five accused complained of chest pain.
