Aligarh: Hospital MS gets Extortion Call from Man claiming from "PMO office", Case Registered

The man purportedly told the superintendent that serious complaints have been filed against the hospital and if she wants that no action is taken in this regard, she should pay up the money- Rs 1 lakh or the file with all the complaints would be put for further action.

Scraping the call out, Dr Sharma discussed the matter with other staff members and then informed the police and administration of the hospital.

While informing the Times Of India about the case, Dr Sharma confirmed, “I have the recording of the conversation and have handed it over to the police”.
