Kwesi Pratt Jr has described as �mischievous�, calls for investigations into the death of former President John Mills. The call for the late President�s cause of death was resurrected amidst the first year anniversary celebration of his passing. Pro-opposition pressure group Young Patriots said it was important for the nation to get to the bottom of the late President�s death, especially, since certain accounts by family members and government officials were at variance. Kwesi Pratt Jr however says there is �no basis for that call� since �an autopsy was conducted by qualified medical practitioners in the presence of his brother representing his family�. �This is clearly mischievous�, the Insight Newspaper Managing Editor told XYZ Breakfast Show. Mr. Pratt wondered why the calls are being made by non-family members despite the fact that neither the pathologists nor the late President�s family have raised any reservations about the stated cause of death. �Who has the locus to be calling for an investigation into his death? What is the basis of that call?� He wondered. He says �we should show some respect to the family of Prof. Mills. We should show some respect to his brother. We should show some respect to the Professor himself�. He wondered why similar calls are not being made in respect of late Leaders such as Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, Prof. Kofi Abrefa Busia and I. K Acheampong amongst others.
