Rohit Shekhar Tiwari did not share a cordial relationship with his wife and was apparently upset over his political career not taking off, according to his mother Ujjwala. Her statement came days after the Delhi Police registered a case of murder into the death of Rohit, hours after his autopsy report stated that he died of asphyxia due to strangulation. The case has been transferred to the crime branch for investigation.<\/p>\n
Police on Saturday questioned Rohit\u2019s wife Apoorva in the mysterious death case. According to Ujjwala, 40-year-old Rohit, and she went to Haldwani to cast their vote on April 11. They were supposed to return to Delhi on April 12, but changed their plan after Rohit, son Narain Dutt Tiwari, former Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand, said he wanted to meet his people.<\/p>\n
On April 15, the mother-son duo returned to Delhi. While Rohit went to his residence in Defence Colony, Ujjwala went to Tilak Lane and returned later. \u201cWhen I came back, I asked Apoorva (Rohit\u2019s wife) about him, she told me he was tired, so he had dinner and went to sleep,\u201d said Ujjwala.<\/p>\n
\u201cI left for Tilak Lane at around 11.30 pm that day and returned around 2 pm the next day but could not meet my son. I had severe pain in my thumb, so I immediately took an appointment at Max Hospital. Before leaving, I asked Apoorva about Rohit. She told me he was sleeping and I thought I shouldn\u2019t disturb him,\u201d she said. \u201cI trusted Apoorva and did not question her as to why was Rohit sleeping till so late,\u201d she said. Ujjwala said she reached Max Hospital around 4.30 pm and went to the emergency ward.<\/p>\n
\u201cRajeev (who was accompanying her to the hospital) received a call from a domestic help who said Rohit was smeared in blood and asked us to come with an ambulance. My car was parked near an ambulance. I ensured that an ambulance left for my home immediately,\u201d she recalled.<\/p>\n
Ujjwala said while on her way home, she dialed Dr Sumit Sethi, who had been treating Shekhar since 2007 when he first suffered a heart attack.<\/p>\n
\u201cApoorva and Rohit tied the nuptial knot in 2018. It was a love marriage. Before that, they were seeing each other for a year,\u201d Ujjwala said.<\/p>\n
The Delhi Police on Thursday registered a case of murder into the death of Rohit, hours after his autopsy report stated that he died of asphyxia due to strangulation.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe medical board unanimously concluded that the cause of death in this case is asphyxia as a result of strangulation and smothering. It is a sudden unnatural death, placed in the category of homicide,\u201d said Dr Sudhir Gupta, the head of the AIIMS\u2019 forensic department.<\/p>\n
Crime Branch officials on Friday visited Rohit\u2019s house in Defence Colony and questioned his family members and domestic helps. A forensics team too visited the house.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
