Tamil Nadu: In an unfortunate incident, a 30-year-old doctor was found dead under mysterious circumstances at his residence in Chulamedu, Chennai. The victim was pursuing his MCh. in Surgical Gastroenterology at Madras Medical College.
The dead body of a doctor named P. Maruthapandian, a resident of the Perambalur district, was found in his flat. He lived with his wife who was pursuing post-graduation in anesthesia at a private medical college near Guduvancheri.
The incident came to light when the victim’s friends and relatives living in Guindy tried to reach out to him several times. However, when he did not answer their calls even once, they became worried and rushed to the victim’s house. After reaching the victim's house, they tried to open the door but found that it was locked from inside. They then broke the lock and went inside and saw the 30-year-old doctor lying on the floor.
The deceased was taken to Madras Medical College where he was declared dead
The doctor had only enrolled himself in the super specialty course. He was also part of the organ retrieval and liver transplant team the night before the incident.
The Police have recovered the body and sent it for post-mortem after registering a case under section 174 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for unnatural death.
A senior official of the hospital stated The Hindu that “It has been nearly a week since he joined the super speciality course. There were no external injuries on the body. The stomach contents have been sent for forensic analysis. The cause of death is yet to be ascertained. Police are investigating the case”.
One of his colleagues expressed his grief over the death of Dr. Maruthapandian in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
