CMCH seals forged for medical certificates

The seals of doctors at the Coimbatore Medical College Hospital were found to have been forged for getting medical certificates to avail various Government concessions.

According to hospital officials, a person had approached the Ophthalmology Department and sought a certificate stating that he had lost vision in both eyes. However, he was certified to have lost vision only in one eye. He had sought the certificate for availing concessional fare in the railway tickets.

Later, when the certificate came to the hospital for verification, it was found to state that he had lost vision in both eyes.

He was called to the hospital on Wednesday for inquiry during which he allegedly told them that he had purchased the forged seals from a person near the railway junction. Following this, he was handed over to the police outpost at hospital.
