New Delhi: The apex medical council, Medical Council of India (MCI) is reported to have rejected the plea of the Managing Director (MD) of Al-Shifa Hospital whose registration has been cancelled by the Travancore-Cochin Medical Council after the state medical council found severe discrepancies in the records and degree credentials submitted by him
The recommendation to this effect was made by the disciplinary committee of the Travancore Cochin Medical Council (TCMC) in the year 2017 after a committee headed by Health Services Director Dr. R.L. Saritha had found that the MCI registration number produced by Mr. Shahjahan Yousaf Sahib at the time of his registration with TCMC belonged to a lady doctor. Moreover, the council found that the degrees submitted by the said Yousaf were fake and that he was using the title "MD Physician' based on his degree procured in Russia (which is equivalent to MBBS in India, after clearing the screening exam).
Following the recommendations, the council after a unanimous decision from its members has finally removed his name from the state medical register. TCMC has also decided to give a complaint to the Director General of Police against Mr. Sahib for cheating and fraud
