How to deal police inquiry in a case of death certificate?

Few days ago police came to me for inquiry of a death certificate I given. Police said someone lodged a murder case against the family and the original copy of certificate I gave to the family was missing. And the case is in court. Police asked me whether I issued the certificate. I declared that the patient was under my treatment and the death was natural. I think there are some property issues. Can court summon me regarding this.

Yes, the court can summon you regarding this. As a doctor, you are a witness to the death of the patient and the circumstances surrounding it. The court may need your testimony to determine whether or not the death was a murder. Contact us for further enquiry.
