The accused, who is identified as Narendra Yadav, claimed to be a London -based cardiologist N John Camum. He has gone missing since a complaint was filed against him that it was claimed that patients had died due to their wrong treatment.

The 63 -year -old mother of Nabi Qureshi, Rahesa, was admitted to the Mission Hospital on 13 January after suffering a heart attack. On 14 January, an angiography was done on him. On 16 January, two days later, he passed by Angioplasty on 16 January, during which he was allegedly suffering a massive heart attack and was kept on ventilator support. He died shortly after.
“We were told that she died of a heart attack, so we did not go for postmortem,” Nabi Qureshi told NDTV. “But we later learned from the media that a fake doctor was working on patients. Nobody has talked to us to the hospital or administration till now.”
‘Came for gas problems, died after heart surgery’
In another case, Jitendra Singh of Patera alleged that his father Mangal Singh was admitted to the hospital on 4 February for an issue related to gas.
