Health department steps in
The Meerut health department has issued a notice to Alpha Hospital. Chief Medical Officer Dr Ashok Kataria has asked for a reply within three days.
The notice names several staff members, including a physiotherapist and doctors.
However, the hospital management has denied all charges. The manager said no doctor named Afzal works there and called the allegations false.
Victims shifted for treatment
Both Ayush and Parul Tomar, who received the kidney, have been discharged from the hospital. They have been sent to Lucknow for better treatment.
Police are now checking hospital records and trying to connect all parts of the racket.
