More skeletons tumble out in case of fake Dr John Camm: His last 5 patients died the day he operated on them

According to the records, the accused performed angioplasty procedures on a total of 12 patients at Mission Hospital in Madhya Pradesh’s Damoh. Three of them died after the procedure, and two during it. All five died on the day they underwent the procedure.

The first of his total of 12 procedures took place on January 2, this year, and the last on February 11, before he resigned and left the hospital premises, allegedly with a portable echo machine.

According to records, the last five patients on whom Yadav conducted the procedure before his resignation had all died. The first of them was Raheesa Begum, 63, who received treatment on January 15. She was followed by Israel Khan, 75, on January 17; Buddha Ahirwar, 67, on January 25; Mangal Singh Rajput, 65, on February 2; and Satyendra Singh Rathore, 51, on February 11.

Deputy Chief Minister Rajendra Shukla told the Assembly that the hospital had not informed the concerned government officials about Yadav’s appointment “as per regulatory provisions”, and that no inspection had taken place during his time at the hospital. Shukla was responding to a question put forward by Leader of Opposition Umang Singhar.

“From 14/06/2022 to 04/12/2024, Mission Hospital, Damoh, was periodically inspected by the inspection team ordered by the Chief Medical and Health Officer, Damoh. During this period, Dr Narendra Vikramaditya Yadav, alias Narendra John Camm, was not working at Mission Hospital, Damoh,” Shukla said in his response.

The appointment of “Dr Narendra John Camm at Mission Hospital, Damoh, was made on 03/01/2025, and the information regarding this appointment was not provided to the then Chief Medical and Health Officer (Supervisory Authority, Madhya Pradesh Nursing Homes and Clinical Establishments (Registration and Licensing) Act), Damoh, as per regulatory provisions”.

Therefore, Yadav’s qualifications and degree “could not be verified by the supervisory authority or any other authorised officer”, the Assembly was told.

The Assembly was also told that action was taken against the top medical officers of Damoh district over alleged negligence.
