I'm not sure why you got a crash, but try closing the sink *before* 
closing the source.


>2. Do I need to "delete scheduler" or env->reclaim() does that

Yes, you should also call
	delete scheduler;
just before calling
	env->reclaim();


>3. Why Medium::close(sink) crashes?

I don't know.

No.


>4. How to cleanup RTCPInstance ?

Call
	Medum::close(rtcp);
just before closing the sink.

Note that, in general, you should destroy objects in the reverse 
order from that in which you create them.  So try:
	sink->stopPlaying();
	Medum::close(rtcp);
	Medium::close(sink);
	Medium::close(framedSource);
	delete scheduler;
	env->reclaim();
