MUMBAI: Bombay high court rejected the anticipatory bail application of a social worker from Malegaon, Irfan Tamboli, stating that he is a key man in a medical racket run under the name of Jeevani Arogya Yojna.

"Prima facie it appears that Dr Wasim Ansari absconding accused Dr TK Sahi and Tamboli were running a racket systematically in the name of patients and withdrew the amounts disbursed by the government which were to be utilised for the cancer patient. The cheque was issued in the name of Balaji hospital and the money was not given to the patient directly it is stated by public prospector that complainant in fact did not have any malignancy any as per the report of Tata hospital," stated judge Mridula Bhatkarwhile rejecting Tamboli's anticipatory bail.

Earlier the session court had rejected Tamboli's anticipatory bail saying he was the middleman of the racket involving two senior doctors. Now Khar police are looking for Tamboli who is absconding. Police said that Tamboli who impersonifies himself as social worker is a key man in the racket. Police are also looking for Dr Sahi, while Dr Ansari has obtained an anticipatory bail.

The case pertains to a complaint filed by Cancer patient Rajesh Singh, who alleged that he was duped by Dr Sahi, Ansari and Tamboli. Singh, an oral cancer survivor, had lodged a complaint at the J J Marg police station against Shahi, former professor of surgery at JJ Hospital, on co-surgeon Ansari and Tamboli, associated with Balaji Hospital, for cheating him of Rs 2.5 lakh in the name of Rajiv Gandhi Jeevandayee Arogya Yojna. The state has started the Rajiv Gandhi Jeevandayee Arogya Yojana for the economically weak, whose income is less than Rs 1 lakh per annum. Under the scheme, those who cannot meet their medical expenses at hospitals, can apply for a grant from the government that offers Rs 1.5 lakh to every family annually. Over 900 ailments are covered and benefactors can use their cards at any of the empanelled hospitals, public or private.

Singh (32) lodged a complaint alleging that Dr Shahi and Dr Ansari had charged him for treatment and pocketed the money claimed under Rajiv Gandhi Jeevandayee Arogya Yojana. Singh's family alleged that the police were reluctant to register the complaint and suggested they settle the matter outside the police station. They filed the case only after Singh lodged a cheating and medical negligence complaint with the health department.

According to the FIR, Dr Shahi and Dr Ansari asked Singh to deposit Rs 2.5 lakh in instalments in March 2012, but he was not given receipts. His family accidentally got access to papers mentioning the scheme. "Rs 1.5 lakh had been paid to the hospital for my brother's treatment," claimed his sister Sangeeta, adding Tamboli had encashed the cheque. Last year the Balaji hospital had distance itself by saying Dr Ansari was only a consultant, and Dr Shahi not attached to the hospital.
