Calcutta police to probe unnatural death of DYFI leader
The investigation team is headed by joint commissioner (crime) Murlidhar Sharma
A seven-member team of officers from Calcutta police was formed on Wednesday to probe the unnatural death of Maidul Islam Middya, the 33-year-old DYFI leader who had joined last Thursday’s Left march in Calcutta that saw clashes between the police and Left supporters.
The probe team is headed by joint commissioner (crime) Murlidhar Sharma.
Sources said the probe would include examination of witnesses (on-duty policemen and Maidul’s friends and colleagues), corroboration of statements with available CCTV footage and verification of findings with the nature of injuries he had sustained.
