CHANDIGARH: Investigations into the insurance scam targeting cancer patients revealed that the doctor of civil hospital was paid Rs 1.5 lakh each for the autopsy of fake accident victims. The Special Investigation Team (SIT) members are conducting raids to round up the medico. He is suspected to have performed 15 such autopsies, said the members of SIT.

Meanwhile, in a related development, the Sonipat court on Friday has extended the police remand of Pawan Bhoria for four days. Pawan, along with his two aides, was arrested last Saturday. Closely after, two lab technicians were arrested. Sumit Kumar, the son of the cancer patients, was the last to be arrested on Tuesday.

DSP Shamsher Singh, the supervising officer of the SIT said that the accused, including Sumit Kumar who had lodged a false FIR regarding the death of his father Krishan Kumar, have been remanded to judicial custody. “We have got enough information from Bhoria’s associates. We have made recoveries from Sumit and Pawan as well into the claim received by Sumit. Hence, except Pawan, we did not require other accused for further interrogation,’’ said DSP Singh.
