Another Quack busted in Gujarat, medicines seized
Fake Doctor
Vadodara: The Borsad rural police arrested a fake doctor on Sunday for allegedly operating a clinic and treating patients without a valid medical degree in Gujarat's Anand district. This comes just two days after a similar arrest in Napad Talpad village.
According to the news reports, the accused was running a makeshift clinic near a madrasa in Borsad taluka, where he was allegedly treating numerous patients using both ayurvedic and allopathic medicines—despite lacking formal medical qualifications.
Acting on a tip-off, the police conducted a raid in coordination with Dr. Rohankumar Suthar and his team from the Borsad Community Health Centre. During the inspection, a wide range of medicines and treatment materials were found on the premises. Authorities seized medicines valued at Rs 11,927.
A case has been registered under the Gujarat Medical Practices Act, and an investigation is currently underway.
