<h1>Alleged poisoning prompts criminal investigation and arrests in singer's mysterious death, with witness claiming conspiracy.</h1> Allegations that the singer was deliberately poisoned and that a conspiracy was hatched to portray his death as accidental form the operative core of the investigation. A bandmate's witness statement alleges the manager shouted to abandon the gasping victim, seized control of the yacht, arranged alcohol and companions for the deceased, and suppressed evidence. Arrests have been made on charges including criminal conspiracy, murder, and culpable homicide not amounting to murder; investigators report documentary, financial, and testimonial material that they say prima facie links the accused to the conduct, and a Special Investigation Team, the CID, and a judicial commission are conducting inquiries.
