The Mumbai police and the BMC busted five allegedly bogus ‘senior’ doctors operating in the sprawling slums of Govandi-Shivajinagar in North East Mumbai, said a report in this paper, citing officials.

The report said tip-offs led to action, with a team raiding the premises of the charlatans who had been operating with impunity for a long time, charging exorbitantly for various kinds of treatments. The team recovered a quantity of medical equipment such as stethoscopes, injections, drip bottles and surgical trays.
