Dr Manish Tripathi, a key accused in the Kandivli fake vaccination scam, has been booked in another case by Charkop police based on a 19-year-old student’s complaint. According to the complainant, several months back she had paid Rs 90,000 for admission to Tripathi’s institute for nursing courses, but not even a single class was held. Police said several more students, who were cheated by him, have come forward.

Last week, Charkop police filed a case under Sections 420 (cheating) and 406 (criminal breach of trust) against him and his KCEP Group of Institutions based on the complaint. So far 12 students, cheated by Tripathi, have come forward, said an officer.
