A case has been registered against Abhijit Madane. Deputy Director of Health Services Board Dr. Sanjog Kadam has filed the complaint.

Patient Amit Salunkhe lured Sarika Sutar, a woman, to a kidney transplant in Ruby Hall for Rs 15 lakh. Taking into account the documents submitted by Salunkhe, the transplant committee allowed the kidney transplant. As he did not get Rs 15 lakh, Sutar lodged a complaint with the police. The nature of the kidney smuggling was later revealed. A woman who sold her kidneys for money has also been charged.
