The Anti‑Corruption Bureau detained a broker accused of taking a ₹35,000 bribe linked to a medical report at Nadbai Government Hospital in Bharatpur, and also placed a senior medical officer in custody.
The Anti‑Corruption Bureau (ACB) of Rajasthan arrested a broker in Bharatpur on suspicion of accepting a bribe of ₹35,000 in connection with a medical report that was allegedly used to create a heavy MLC at the Nadbai Government Hospital. The arrest was made after a complaint prompted a focused investigation into irregularities at the hospital.
During the same operation, a senior medical officer who is alleged to have demanded the same amount from the broker was also taken into custody for questioning. Investigators said the officer’s involvement points to a coordinated effort to manipulate official medical documentation for personal gain.
Authorities have not released further details about the investigation, but they indicated that the alleged scheme sought to expedite benefits through falsified medical reports. The ACB has confirmed that the case remains under active inquiry.
The arrests highlight the state’s ongoing crackdown on corruption within the health sector, reinforcing the message that illicit financial transactions will be pursued rigorously.
