London: Michael Jackson`s personal physician Conrad Murray has been accused of spending 47 minutes making calls to another doctor, a lawyer and a mystery associate after the singer stopped breathing.Dr Steven Hoefflin, who treated Jackson for 25 years, alleged Murray phoned fellow medic Arnold Klein for advice on what to do as the King of Pop lay dying.
"Murray definitely called Klein because Klein taught him how to administer propofol,” the Sun quoted Hoefflin as saying.
"There were two in-state calls then one out-of-state. He was calling an attorney - he had to because Michael was dead.
"He tried to cover it up by telling everyone Michael had a weak pulse, but Michael was dead," he added.
Hoefflin, a respected plastic surgeon, also claimed that Murray rang an attorney before informing a security guard to dial 911 and summon paramedics to Jackson’s Los Angeles home.
But a lawyer representing Murray recently denied claims that the medic left Jackson to make phone calls after giving him powerful anaesthetic Propofol.
Lawyer Ed Chernoff issued a statement seeking to clarify parts of a court affidavit unsealed in Houston, Texas.
The contents came to light as reports claimed that the Los Angeles County coroner had concluded Jackson``s death was homicide and that he had lethal levels of Propofol in his body when he died on June 25.
