Bengaluru: A private hospital owner and a doctor by profession in Dobbaspet was arrested for allegedly duping a 36-year-old man of Rs 45 lakh by falsely promising to secure a government job for his brother-in-law. The incident also led to the arrest of a former Panchayat Development Officer (PDO), Yogendra, who was reportedly involved in the scam.
According to reports by TNIE, the accused, Dr Chandrashekar, refunded Rs 15 lakh to the complainant in an attempt to cover up his scam. However, the complainant was unhappy and demanded the return of the remaining money. When the complainant confronted the doctor about the remaining amount, he allegedly assaulted him and threatened to file a false case of misconduct against him.
