Man Impersonates Friend to Get Degree, Practices Medicine for Years
Imagine a man named Satendra pretended to be his friend Brijraj to become a doctor.
He used Brijraj's name for seven years, getting a medical degree and working in a hospital.
Brijraj, who is a painter, didn't know any of this.
It was discovered when a patient died in September 2024, and the doctors records showed "Dr.
Brijraj Singh Uike" was on duty.
The police discovered the truth when they checked Brijraj's real identity.
The police are now investigating Satendra, and the friend whose identity was stolen.
Satendra Kumar impersonated his friend Brijraj Singh Uike to obtain an MBBS degree.
Kumar practiced as a doctor in Jabalpur for seven years under Uike's name.
Brijraj Singh Uike, a painter, was unaware of Kumar's actions.
The fraud was exposed after a patient's death in September 2024 at a private hospital.
An FIR has been filed against Satendra for fraud and conspiracy.
