Zubeen Garg's bandmate Partha Pritam Goswami has accused Siddharth Sharma, the singer's manager and fellow band member Shekhar Jyoti Goswami of negligence and carelessness following the his mysterious death in Singapore.
Goswami criticised the two of drinking and all night, adding that they did not allow Garg to sleep despite knowing that he is a seizures patient. He also accused them of taking the star for swimming.
"The greatest negligence and carelessness were on the part of Siddharth (Zubeen Garg’s manager Siddharth Sharma) and Shekhar (bandmate Shekhar Jyoti Goswami). You two, who stay close to Zubeen like shadows, brought someone who hadn’t slept and had been drinking and partying all night to swim in the sea, fully aware that Zubeen is a seizure patient. How could you do that?,” Partha Pratim Goswami told the media following his CID questioning.
“You didn’t let him sleep and insisted on taking him to the sea just because you wanted to have fun. I will never forgive them for this reckless mistake for as long as I live,” he added.
