For nearly an hour, the group searched both his residence and the hospital premises. During the so-called “search,” they seized jewellery and cash from both the hospital and the residence. After the four accused left, the doctor tried to contact his associates and only then realised something was wrong. By Monday morning, it became clear that the four were impostors, as per the TOI media report. 

Dr. Mehtre immediately approached the police and lodged a complaint. Superintendent of Police Sandip Ghuge assigned Inspector Satish Shinde from the local crime branch to handle the case. 

"We have started the investigation. The CCTV footage from the hospital, residence, and nearby areas is being checked. We are trying to get more information about the behaviour of the people who posed as IT officials," Shinde said.

The police have launched a full investigation to track down the fake officials and recover the stolen property.

Medical Dialogues recently reported that in a recent case of cyber fraud, a senior cardiologist at Apollo Hospital in South Delhi was defrauded of more than Rs 6.69 lakh by a man posing as an Army Cantonment official.
