IAS officer Anurag Tiwari was 'unsatisfied working in Bengaluru'

The Special Investigation Team (SIT), that returned to Lucknow after completing the probe in the Anurag Tiwari death case from Bengaluru, has revealed that the late IAS officer was not satisfied with his work.

The SIT will also send two sealed laptops belonging to Tiwari for Central Forensic Science Laboratory (CFSL) investigation. Apart from this, the SIT has received some documents, which are being scrutinized.

In the investigation, some prescription papers related to Anurag's disease have also been found which indicate that the IAS officer was suffering from bronchitis disease.

As per the inquiry it was found that Anurag was not satisfied with working in Bengaluru and wanted to replace the Karnataka Cadre.

Meanwhile, the Superintendent of police (SSP) has sought detailed investigation report from the team.

The doctors preserved the viscera and blood for chemical analysis, while the heart has been preserved for histopathological examination.

"Viscera and blood will be sent to the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) for special test and on the basis of the report the cause of the death will be ascertained," the doctor said.
