Fake Gynaecologist arrested after practising for 10 Years
Quack arrested for posing as Gynaecologist for 10 years
For the past 10 years, a man from Assam’s Sribhumi district had been impersonating as an obstetrician and gynaecologist, defrauding patients, assisting in around 50 cesarean sections and other gynaecological surgeries, and handling several pregnancy cases at a private hospital in Silchar since 2016. The accused has now been arrested in connection with the fraud.
He had previously worked as a fourth-grade employee in various hospitals. After gaining some basic knowledge, he decided to pose as a doctor using forged documents and purchased a fake MBBS degree from the black market by paying a large sum to a degree-selling racket.
After acquiring the fake degree, he worked as an obstetrician and gynaecologist at Shiva Sundari Nari Sikshashram for several years and was also employed at other private hospitals after moving to Silchar in 2016.
