Kolkata, Feb 19 (IANS) Kashmiri doctor residing in Kolkata alleged that some people turned up at his place post-Pulwama terror attack and threatened him to leave the city, police said on Monday.
The miscreants also threatened to harm his daughter if the medico -- a famed cardiologist -- chose to stay on in the city.
A senior officer of Kolkata Police said the doctor (name and address withheld) has made an allegation against a group of people who turned up at his place on Friday and 'asked him to leave Kolkata'.
"Based on doctor's complaint we have started an FIR, but still could not get any witness to corroborate his allegations. The investigation is going on," he said.
The doctor, in his 40s, is residing in Kolkata for more than 20 years.
