New Delhi: A city court has directed the Delhi Police to investigate and register a First Information Report (FIR) against a person who submitted forged medical documents before the court for extension of his interim bail granted earlier by the court on medical grounds.

Court directed SHO, Saket to register an FIR and investigate the matter

Additional Sessions Judge Sugandha Aggarwal directed the station house officer (SHO) of Saket police station to register an FIR against Trilok Chand Chaudhary, who is an accused in a case registered by the Economic Offence Wing (EOW) and investigate the matter.

Chaudhary is accused of cheating, forgery and criminal conspiracy

Chaudhary is accused of cheating, forgery and criminal conspiracy and he was granted an interim bail of four weeks on medical grounds on August 3. He later filed a plea before the court for extension of his bail, submitting he was suffering from 100 percent heart blockage and uncontrolled diabetes and his condition was vulnerable.

What did the court note?

The court noted that Chaudhary had submitted his medical reports dated September 11 before the court and the doctor had advised him to undergo coronary angiography and stent insertion one month after his blood sugar level was brought under control. It further said that the same doctor had discharged Chaudhary with the observation that his medical condition was stable on September 2.

As per the verification report by the Investigating Officer (IO), Chaudhary was not examined as he had not visited the doctor on September 11. The court noted that the prescription submitted by Chaudhary did not have the seal of the doctor and the handwriting and signature of the doctor on the reports were different from those on the earlier reports.

The counsel representing Chaudhary submitted that his client had visited a junior doctor at the same clinic, however, the court rejected the claims made by Chaudhary’s counsel, saying that the report did not have the name or signature of any junior doctor.

Applicant has misled the court to get a favourable order: court

The court said that the above circumstances show that Chaudhary has placed on record a forged and fabricated prescription of the doctor in order to get a favourable order from the court.

“The above discussion clearly shows that the health condition of the applicant (Chaudhary) is stable with medication…The applicant has misled the court to get a favourable order,” the court said while dismissing Chaudhary’s plea and directing the Delhi Police to register an FIR and investigate the matter, news agency PTI reported.
