Hair transplant deaths: Police looking for 10, including 2 docs
Kanpur: Police have intensified their investigation into the deaths of two engineers following hair transplant in Kanpur.
They are examining evidence collected from Dr Anushka's clinic and are searching for 10 people, including two doctors, whose names were found on a slip.
Initial investigations indicate that all their phone numbers are currently unreachable. The police are trying to locate them using surveillance methods.
Dr Anushka, accused in the deaths of the two engineers, was detained by the police for six hours on Wednesday and taken to the Empire Clinic in Keshavpuram. DCP (West) Dinesh Tripathi said that the evidence from the clinic is under review.
The slip listed the names and phone numbers of 10 people, including two doctors.
"Currently, all the numbers are inactive. A team will soon reach out to them to record their statements to understand their connection with Dr Anushka," the DCP added.
To recap, Anushka Tiwari performed hair transplant procedures on Vineet Dubey, an assistant engineer at Panki Power Plant, and Mayank Katiyar, a software engineer from Farrukhabad. Both of them experienced facial swelling immediately after the procedure, and within twenty-four hours, both passed away.
The incident gained attention when Jaya Tripathi, the wife of engineer Vineet Dubey, filed a complaint on the chief minister's portal.
Anushka Tiwari, a dental doctor, ventured outside her field of expertise by conducting hair transplants.
After the FIR was filed, she closed her clinic and went into hiding. She surrendered in court on May 26. Subsequently, the police took her into custody on June 4.

"In Dhubri, a particular group has become active with the intent to damage our temples. We have issued SHOOT AT SIGHT ORDERS," Himanta wrote.

Shoot-at-sight order at Assam border amid communal unrest
Himanta said police found at least three provocative posters put up by a group identified as Nabin Bangla at different locations there GUWAHATI: The Assam government on Friday issued a shoot-at-sight order in the India-Bangladesh border town of Dhubri after dusk to rein in what CM Himanta Biswa Sarma described as "a communal group" fomenting trouble over the past week. The immediate trigger for the directive to enforcement agencies, including Rapid Action Force and CRPF reinforcements, was a purported poster campaign by the group for "Dhubri's integration with Bangladesh". The town has been on the edge for several days following mob violence over offal being found near a place of worship. CM, who was in Dhubri district to take stock, said police found at least three provocative posters put up by a group identified as Nabin Bangla at different locations there. "Since the last one week, maintaining law and order in Dhubri has been challenging. A communal group is trying to create disturbances, which the government won't tolerate," Sarma said. He later wrote on X, "I directed law enforcement officers to follow (a policy of) zero tolerance against elements who desecrate places of Dhubri, a particular group has become active with the intent to damage our temples. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trade Bitcoin & Ethereum – No Wallet Needed! IC Markets Undo We have issued SHOOT AT SIGHT orders." Communal tension gripped Dhubri on June 7, a day after Eid, prompting community leaders on either side to appeal for peace. The next day, offal was allegedly dumped at another location, leading to stone-pelting at night, Sarma said. CM said a large herd of cattle illegally brought to Dhubri from Bengal by a "new beef mafia" was another reason for the disturbances. "I have ordered an inquiry into this. I have directed the authorities to arrest whoever has started this cattle trade." Sarma declared that he would camp in Dhubri for two days on Eid next year to ensure something like this didn't recur. "We are fully committed to ensure enforcement of law and order in the district and defeat all communal forces," he said. CM alleged last week that beef had been "weaponised" in the state. Dhubri has the highest Muslim population among all districts of Assam, constituting 90% of the demography. Suspicions about a large section of them being of Bangladeshi origin make the issue a socio-political hot potato.
