Lucknow, Feb 4: An official statement released here on Sunday stated that the Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) of the Uttar Pradesh Police had detained an employee of the Indian Embassy in Moscow for his alleged involvement in anti-national activities with the Pakistani intelligence agency ISI and for having given them critical, confidential information about the strategic operations of the Ministry of Defence, the Ministry of External Affairs, and the Indian military establishments. According to the statement, the ATS has detained Satendra Siwal, the son of Jaiveer Singh, who lives in Shahmahiuddinpur village in the Hapur district police station area. According to the statement, Siwal is currently assigned to the Indian Embassy in Moscow, Russia, and works for the Ministry of External Affairs.The statement said that the ATS was receiving intelligence from a number of confidential sources indicating that the handlers of the Pakistani intelligence agency, ISI, were using certain individuals to entice Ministry of External Affairs employees with money in order to obtain strategically significant information about the Indian Army. This information is likely to pose a serious threat to both India's internal and external security. In its investigation using electronic and physical surveillance, the ATS discovered that Siwal was engaged in anti-Indian activities with the network of ISI handlers and that he was giving them crucial, secret information about the strategic undertakings of the Ministry of External Affairs, the Ministry of Defence, and the Indian military establishments in exchange for money.According to the statement, Siwal was invited to the ATS field unit in Meerut and subjected to a legal interrogation. During the interview, he confessed to his wrongdoing because he was unable to provide adequate explanations. Under Section 121A of the IPC (waging war against the country) and the Official Secrets Act of 1923, a FIR has been filed against Siwal, who is employed as the India Based Security Assistant (IBSA) in the Indian Embassy in Moscow, Russia, as of 2021, at the ATS police station in Lucknow, according to the statement.

SRINAGAR, Feb 3: Following the arrest of a self-styled doctor, officials in district Anantnag today requested information on all physicians working at private hospitals and clinics in the area in order to keep an eye on and identify medical professionals with questionable qualifications. In this context, the names of practicing physicians, their degrees, J&K Medical Council registration numbers, and mobile numbers have all been requested from the district's private healthcare managers.In a related circular, all private clinics and hospitals in District Anantnag were asked to provide information about their practicing physicians within three days, emphasising the importance of systemic transparency. The Chief Medical Officer (CMO), Anantnag, took the necessary measures after discovering a doctor working at a clinic in Mehman Gali, Anantnag district, who was purportedly using phoney degrees. Through the efforts of a social activist in the district, the so-called doctor, named as Gulzar Ahmad, who was accused of posing as a gastroenterology falsely, was brought to light.After over ten days of fieldwork, social activist Dr. Abdul Bari Naik and his team discovered that the practitioner was not only in Anantnag but also in several other areas like as Srinagar, Budgam, and Ganderbal. "We discovered that the individual was seeing patients at Dar Medicos, Ganderbal; National Drug Store, Hawal; and Mankind Pharmacy, Nowshera, in addition to Medwin Pharmacy in Anantnag," Dr. Bari stated. Additionally, claims were made that the doctor's degrees were falsified and did not actually belong to him.The prescription reveals that he has an MBBS degree with an MD in general medicine as well as a certified superspecialist in gastroenterology. "Even the degree he has been showing from PGI Chandigarh is tampered with; it indicates that he has also studied in London, which does not seem to be the case," Dr. Bari said. Nevertheless, the so-called doctor made the decision to run away and ask for forgiveness when the activist and the "Excelsior" team tried to speak with him about the situation. "He gave me someone else's registration number when I visited the clinic as a patient. "I verified; every degree was fraudulent," Dr. Bari remarked.District health authorities became aware of the situation and quickly closed the facility and started an inquiry. Chief Medical Officer (CMO) Anantnag, Dr. M.Y. Zagoo, stated to: "We have taken action; the pharmacy was sealed quickly, and we are currently looking into the allegations; we will make sure his credentials are verified, and appropriate action will be taken; in addition, we have directed private hospitals and clinics to submit information about practicing physicians."It should be mentioned that a case involving a fraudulent doctor who was observed wandering the Lal Ded Hospital claiming to be a cardiologist had surfaced earlier this year. Following a public outcry, the authorities established an inquiry committee tasked with investigating the situation and submitting any necessary recommendations. Nevertheless, neither the committee's findings nor the authorities' knowledge of the corrective actions implemented to avoid future incidents have been made public as of yet.
