Delhi Police Seeks Details Of Doctors Trained From Four Countries As Red Fort Blast Probe Widens

New Delhi: Furthering the investigation into the November 10 car bomb blast in Delhi, the Special Branch of the Delhi Police has asked private hospitals to provide detailed information about doctors trained from Pakistan, Bangladesh, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and China and currently practicing in private hospitals in the national capital.

According to the Delhi Police, the move is aimed to expand the scope of the investigation into security and possible intelligence connections. The police want to ensure that no members of terrorist activities or suspicious networks are active in the national capital under the guise of the medical profession, the police said.

The information sought in the notice includes the doctor's full name and address (both permanent and current), nationality (if a foreign national), the country and university from which the MBBS degree was obtained, and a copy of the certificate (Foreign Medical Graduates Examination - FMGE or Screening Test) issued by the Medical Council of India or the National Medical Commission to practice in India. The information sought includes their current role and tenure at the hospital.

While the notice does not directly accuse any doctor, it demonstrates that investigating agencies are taking potential infiltration into professional circles seriously to ensure national security.

Officials believe that creating a database of doctors with degrees from these four specific countries will help expedite the verification process, especially in cases where there are suspicions of identity concealment or document falsification.
Private hospitals have been asked to submit this information as soon as possible, and the administration has warned them of legal action if they fail to cooperate.
