Pune doctor Ajay Taware, recently arrested for altering blood samples in Pune’s Porsche car case, allegedly has a history of manipulating medical reports. A retired customs commissioner from Juhu has been pursuing a case against Dr Taware for three years, accusing him of falsifying a medical report in a cheating case against his son’s in-laws, who allegedly hid the true gender of his daughter-in-law. The commissioner has also complained to the director general of police in Maharashtra, calling for an inquiry into Dr Taware and other doctors involved in altering his daughter-in-law’s gender test report.
The complainant managed to obtain the medical reports from his daughter-in-law’s birth, finding an entry in the birth register from 1984 in Aurangabad indicating she was born male. However, after 10 years, her family issued another birth certificate identifying her as female. Dr Taware, a former superintendent at Sassoon hospital in Pune, was involved in multiple cases of a kidney racket in 2022.
