Gurugram, Aug. 20 -- A senior medical officer and a clerk of the Haryana health department posted at Pinangwan health centre in the Nuh district were arrested after being caught accepting Rs.2.5 lakh from a man to allegedly falsify a medical examination report in favour of the man's son who is facing charges of raping a minor, Haryana state vigilance and anti-corruption bureau (ACB) officials said on Wednesday. ACB inspector Vijender Singh said the clerk, a multi-purpose health worker, had taken the money and kept it inside a chair when he was arrested on Tuesday. "He confessed of taking the money on the directions of senior medical officer, following which the team arrested him too from the spot immediately," Singh said. ACB officials said the action was taken on a complaint from the man involved in handing over the money, as the officer allegedly sought Rs.3.5 lakh after he had paid the clerk Rs.15,000 on two instances. An officer aware of the case, requesting anonymity, said, "The victim was taken to the Pinangwan health centre for medical examination and collection of samples for forensic analysis, when the clerk contacted the suspect's father and asked him to pay Rs.3.5 lakh to tamper the evidence and submit a medical report stating there was no sign of sexual assault." The clerk and the medical officer were booked under Section 7 of the Prevention of Corruption Act at the ACB police station in Gurugram on Tuesday. A senior health department official said that the duo will be suspended soon and department proceedings will be initiated against them in the case. "The allegations against them are of extremely serious nature," the official said....
