Three days after journalist Pooja Tiwari who had reportedly committed suicide by jumping off her fifth-floor balcony in Faridabad, the police on Tuesday booked three doctors for their alleged role in the incident. A case has now been filed against Dr Anil Goyal, his wife Dr Archana Goyal and Dr Dhawal, for allegedly driving Pooja Tiwari to take the extreme step.
Tiwari was working with Zee Network-owned online news platform www.iamin.in. In a media statement released on Wednesday, the organisation said that they are fully cooperating with the investigating agencies regarding the case.
“In a tragic incident, Pooja Tiwari, 30-years-old and a journalist from the online team of www.iamin.in passed away. The police are investigating the issue to determine the exact cause of death.
Pooja Tiwari had done a sting operation on a doctor who allegedly didn’t hold a medical degree and was illegally providing patients with Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) kits. After the sting video came out, she and her friend Anuj Mishra, were booked for allegedly extorting Rs 2 lakh from the doctor.
