The Punjab Anti-corruption director general needs to constitute an unbiased investigation team to probe into the theft of machinery worth Rs 2,500,000, from the third floor of the Punjab Institute of Preventive Ophthalmology (PIPO) at King Edward Medical University (KEMU).
The machinery was stolen a year ago and has not been recovered until now. A ward attendant named Sabir has been made the scapegoat in this matter.
However, the keys of the store in which the equipment had been stored were in the possession of three people, but only one has been arrested and interrogated so far.
Machinery worth Rs 1,500,000 was stolen from the same store two years ago and six people had been declared responsible (inquiry report available). Farce investigations were carried out apparently to save big shots involved in the matter.
Young doctors would also be personally meeting the anti-corruption DG to raise the issue.
