All CCTV cameras on Jayalalithaa’s floor switched off reveals Apollo Hospital:

 

A number of theories have surfaced regarding Jayalalithaa death. Recently, jailed AIADMK leader Sasikala Natarajan claimed that former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister didn’t want to go to the hospital after she collapsed in the washroom of her Chennai home.

 

 

Sasikala, a long time companion to Amma, also claimed that Jayalalithaa was videographed inside the hospital. In her affidavit retired judge Arumughaswamy Commission.

 

 

Sasikala said some senior AIADMK leaders, including O Panneerselvam and M Thambidurai, were allowed to meet Jayalalithaa, a claim earlier denied by the leaders. She had also claimed that Jayalalithaa regained consciousness on the way to the hospital and asked where she was being taken.

 

 

Her affidavit adds that a severely stressed Jayalalithaa fell unconscious around 9.30 pm, 22 December, 2016. She was inside the washroom on the first floor of Poes Garden when the incident happened.

 

 

“She called out to me for help. I suggested going to hospital, but she refused. She passed out and I called the doctor for an ambulance,” Sasikala has reportedly claimed in the affidavit.

 

 

In a 55-page affidavit, Sasikala also named a number of people who met or saw Amma inside Chennai’s Apolo hospital. In her list, Sasikala has also named governor CH Vidyasagar Rao among the people who had seen Jayalalithaa. Rao had claimed that he saw the AIADMK chief through a glass screen on October 22 and she waved at him.
