An unidentified youth, posing as a doctor, purloined a gold chain worth Rs70,000 from the relative of a patient undergoing treatment in the intensive care unit (ICU) of the Bharati Hospital on Saturday afternoon.
The victim’s sister, Aparna Tilodkar,31, a resident of Wagholi, lodged a first information report (FIR) at the Bharati Vidyapeeth police station on Saturday.
According to the police, Aparna was attending to her son, who has been admitted to the ICU, when the youth came in wearing a white overcoat and with a stethoscope hanging around his neck. After examining the patient, he offered to check up Aparna’s sister, who was sitting near the patient.
He asked her to remove her gold chain and keep it besides her and close her eyes. While conducting the check-up, he managed to steal the gold chain and a cellphone worth Rs 3,000. The victims realised the theft only after the ‘doctor’ had left.
