It includes the names of Rajesh Pandey, a former employee of Kokilaben Hospital, Sanjay Gupta, the camp organizer and Mastermind Mahendra Singh, including 5 others. It also includes a name of woman. Gupta and Singh were also named in the vaccination scam at the Hiranandani Heritage Society in Kandivali. They both are currently in the custody of Kandivali police.

This bogus vaccination camp was organized on June 3, 2021 at Aditya College. The college management trusted Pandey as he was a former employee of a reputed hospital.

So they allowed the vaccination, college management told police. The gang has set up camps at a total of nine places and four more have been uncovered so far. Accordingly, five more cases are likely to be registered.
