Operating as a doctor without legitimate qualifications, Pandu printed a prescription letter pad in his name. Despite lacking valid doctor qualifications and lacking permission from the medical board, he exploited patients by conducting health assessments and prescribed medications without proper diagnostic reports, putting their lives at risk to further his illicit gains.

Acting on credible information, the police arrested him and seized various medicines and medical items from his clinic.

The police seized dispo van injections, syringes, sterile water bottles for injections, nebulizers, prescription books, stethoscope, pulse oximeter, digital fever check meter and tablets among other material.
