Amidst demands for "justice" and "impartial investigation" in the mysterious death of 17-year-old Abesh Dasgupta, Kolkata Police, in search of the missing link of the CCTV footage, today further questioned some of his friends.
Kolkata police sleuths also questioned some of the security personnel of the Sunny Park apartment, where the boy was seen lying fatally injured.
"Some of his friends were called for further questioning to the city police headquarters at Lalbazar today. Some of the security personnel of Sunny Park were also questioned during the day," a senior Kolkata Police official said.
The sleuths had already visited Sunny Park and tried to reconstruct the scene when Abesh lost his life allegedly after being wounded by broken pieces of an alcohol bottle.
Abesh's mother had met Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on July 29 and claimed to have got her assurance to unravel the reason behind her son's death.
Kolkata Police had earlier ruled out murder and said Abesh died due to injuries he suffered after falling from a low wall skirting the lawns of the Sunny Park residential complex on July 23.

Later, author Amit Chaudhury was questioned again at Lalbazar, the Kolkata Police headquarters.
Police officials said he was summoned to cross check a statement given by his daughter to the police.
After lunch at a south Kolkata club, guests at the birthday party of Chaudhuri's daughter had gathered at Sunny Park, the author's apartment complex, in upscale Ballygunge where Aabesh, a class XI student, died of wounds inflicted by glass shards.
Chaudhury was at Lalbazar for around two hours.
