Surgeries he never performed: Indian-origin Houston doctor agrees to pay over $2 million to settle medical fraud allegations
An Indian-origin doctor in Houston agreed to pay $2 million to settle medical fraud allegations against him. Dr Ajay Aggarwal, an Indian-origin pain medicine doctor from Houston, has agreed to pay over $2 million to resolve allegations of medical fraud against him, the US Justice Department revealed. Between 2021 and 2023, the 63-year-old doctor billed federally funded health care programs like Medicare and the Department of Labor's Workers' Compensation Programs for surgical implants that he never performed. Dr Aggarwal received thousands of dollars per procedure, but patients received simple devices which required no surgery. And all device placements used to take place at Aggarwal's clinic, not a hospital or surgical center. 'A doctor who uses simple medical devices on his patients, yet bills Medicare for a sophisticated spinal surgery, is billing the American taxpayer, plain and simple,' said US Attorney Nicholas J Ganjei.. 'The Southern District of Texas will ensure that losses to federally funded healthcare programs from fraudulent billing, like what happened here, are recouped and that wrongdoers are held accountable.' A 2023 document of the DOJ revealed that earlier he was accused of giving unnecessary treatment to federal employees with federal workers' compensation benefits and his pharmacy Medley, which was officially owned by his wife, filed the prescriptions. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Brilliant Uses For Baking Soda That Really Surprised Us Read More Undo An employee of Medley acted as a whistleblower and said that during his term of employment, he saw patients being sent unnecessary with unnecessary medications being prescribed. In some cases, the patients did not even see or meet Dr Aggarwal. And Medley employees were allegedly instructed to auto-fill medications on a monthly basis and to use pre-printed prescription pads to submit the prescriptions to DOL-OWCP without consideration of medical need. The new fraud of Dr Aggarwal came to be reported at a time when foreign doctors are under fire, while several Republican leaders said US needs more doctors and foreign doctors can fill the gap.

NIA chargesheets four accused in 2024 Champaran fake currency seizure case
New Delhi [India], August 12 (ANI): The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Tuesday chargesheeted four accused in the 2024 Champaran (Bihar) fake currency seizure case involving a syndicate with linkages in Pakistan and Nepal. The agency filed the supplementary chargesheet against the four arrested accused, namely Md Nazar Saddam, Md Waris, Md Zakir Hushain, and Muzaffar Ahmad Wani alias Sarfaraz, under relevant sections of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act before its special court in Patna. The accused had earlier been charge sheeted in the case by the local police in October 2024. NIA said it found evidence to show that the accused were involved in smuggling high-quality Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN) from Nepal into India with the intent to damage the country's financial stability. 'They had been procuring the FICN from Pakistan-based entities through Nepali handlers against cryptocurrency payment," said the NIA. NIA investigation further showed that Md Nazar Saddam was actively involved, along with Md Waris and Md Zakir Hushain, in smuggling FICN from Nepal to India. Muzaffar Ahmad Wani alias Sarfaraz was providing funds and logistic support for the procurement and circulation of the notes in India, said the anti-terror agency. The case relates to the seizure of FICN of face value Rs 1,95,000. NIA, which took over the case in December 2024, had produced the accused in the court in January this year.

Jail term over 2 years or serious charges: MHA issues new grounds to cancel OCI cards
The Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) card will be liable for cancellation if its holder is sentenced to imprisonment for a term of at least two years or has been named in a chargesheet for an offence carrying a possible punishment of seven years or more, the home ministry said in a notification on Tuesday. The notification, issued via the official gazette under clause (da) of Section 7D of the Citizenship Act, 1955, outlines that the new rules apply to any OCI registration meeting either of these conditions. An Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) registration shall be liable to get cancelled when a person has been sentenced to imprisonment for term of not less than two years or has been charge-sheeted for an offence entailing punishment of imprisonment for seven years or more: MHA… — ANI (@ANI) August 12, 2025 Introduced in August 2005, the OCI scheme allows Indian-origin foreign nationals to visit India without a visa and provides multiple entry, multi-purpose, lifelong access. It applies to all persons of Indian origin who were citizens of India on or after January 26, 1950, or were eligible to become citizens on that date — but excludes those who are or have been citizens of Pakistan, Bangladesh, or any other country specified by the government. The changes add fresh legal grounds for the cancellation of OCI status, which was previously revoked mainly on security, fraud, or procedural grounds. (With Inputs from PTI)
