Constable Ramakant Pandey had been questioned four months ago by the Special Task Force investigating the Vyapam scam, reports said.Local police has denied allegations of the death being linked to Vyapam scam claiming that Pandey was an alcoholic and was depressed over mounting debt. This is the fourth death in four days as a trainee policewoman, a doctor and a journalist died under mysterious circumstances between Saturday and Monday last. Congress leader PL Punia on Tuesday demanded a CBI probe monitored by the Supreme Court into the Vyapam scam. "How will they investigate Vyapam in an unbiased way when they are in power? There needs to be a CBI probe under SC," said Punia. The Congress Party has been demanding a fair and transparent probe into the 2013 scam and the immediate removal of Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan from office. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court has also agreed to hear a petition against Madhya Pradesh Governor Ram Naresh Yadav to ensure a fair inquiry into the Vyapam scam. The matter is scheduled to be heard on July 9.
