Doctor 'responsible' says Jackson

Singer Janet Jackson has revealed that she blames her late brother Michael's personal doctor for his death in June.

In her first TV interview since Jackson's death, she told ABC News that she believes Dr Conrad Murray should no longer be allowed to practice medicine.

"He was the one that was administering. I think he is responsible," she said.

A spokeswoman for Dr. Murray said he continues to maintain he neither prescribed nor administered anything to Jackson that killed him.

In August, a Los Angeles coroner ruled that the Thriller singer's death was homicide, primarily caused by the powerful anaesthetic Propofol.

Since Michael's death, Dr Murray has been named as an official suspect in the police investigation.

He told officers that he had administered the anaesthetic to the singer shortly before he died.

'Like a dream'
During the interview, Janet told ABC's Robin Roberts that she was at her home in New York when she received the news that her brother had been taken to hospital.

The star admitted that not a day goes by when she does not think of Michael.

"It just didn't ring true to me. It felt like a dream," she said.

"It's still so difficult for me to believe."
In August, Dr. Murray posted a short clip on YouTube making his first public statement since Michael passed away.

"I told the truth and I have faith the truth will prevail," he said.
