The Family of Malayali violinist Balabhaskar who died in a road accident earlier this month has requested a police investigation into the case alleging 'mystery' in the accident.

Balabhaskar's father C.K. Unni has filed a complaint with Kerala DGP Loknath Behera. The musician's family is also seeking to know why they urgently traveled to Thiruvananthapuram.

The fatal accident took place in the wee hours of September 25 as their car hit into a tree on the national highway. Balabhaskar's two-year-old daughter Tejaswini died on the spot. Balabhaskar, who was seriously injured, died on October 2. His wife Lakshmi and driver Arjun survived the accident.

Since the accident, there have been speculations about who drove the car during the accident. Lakshmi and Arjun's contradictory statements have added to the mystery surrounding the accident.
