The court of additional district and sessions judge Sanjeev Jindal on Thursday dismissed the revision petition of two Bank of India employees and a lawyer accused of helping the owner of Shubham Hospital avail hefty bank loans on forged documents.

The trio — Ashwini Gupta, Vinod Thakur and advocate S K Gilhotra — had filed an application against charges of cheating and fraud, recently framed against them by the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate.

Public Prosecutor NK Goyal said, “Gupta, Thakur and Gilhotra were accused of helping the fake doctor Sandeep Sharma, owner of Shubham Hospital avail bank loans. After the lower court framed charges against them, they moved the higher court”.

Another accused in the case, Surinder Gupta employed with Punjab and Sindh Bank, Panchkula, was however acquitted by the court today. The court has, meanwhile, reserved its order on the revision petition of Dr Sandeep Sharma.

Claiming to be an MBBS, MS, eye surgeon, Sharma had raised several loans with different banks: Rs 2 crore from Punjab National Bank, Sector 16, Chandigarh; Rs 1 crore from Bank of India, Sector 16, Panchkula, Rs 1 crore from Punjab and Sind Bank, Rs 40 lakh from Oriental Bank, Manimajra; and Rs 1 crore from Corporation Bank of Chandigarh.

“For processing the loans, Sharma used fake certificates and documents that were verified by Gilhotra,” added Goyal.

Based on a complaint lodged by civil surgeon, Panchkula, Kamla Singh, that Sharma was running the hospital on a fake ophthalmologist’s degree, the Chandigarh Police with their counterparts from Panchkula and Ambala, and the CBI raided and sealed the Shubham Hospital on January 30, 2008.
