Doctor linked to baby selling racket practised without valid license? Here's what Telangana Medical Council said
The Telangana State Medical Council has revealed that the doctor who was recently arrested for being involved in an illegal surrogacy and baby-selling racket operating under the name of a Hyderabad-based fertility clinic, had been suspended for five years in 2016 over surrogacy irregularities. After that, the accused doctor did not renew her registration after expiry and despite this, she allegedly continued running IVF clinics in Hyderabad and Visakhapatnam, Telangana Today has reported.
Doctors familiar with the development informed the Daily that the accused doctor's registration number with the combined Telangana and Andhra Pradesh Medical Council was 37457.
Medical Dialogues had earlier reported how Hyderabad police arrested eight individuals, including a fertility specialist and the owner of a chain of clinics across Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Dr. A Namratha was the prime accused doctor and the owner of the fertility clinic.
