# Mumbai FIR: Couple cheated six doctors of Rs 39.8 lakh over hospital 2026-08-08T03:15:20+00:00 | India | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Charkop Police in Mumbai have registered an FIR against a developer and his wife for allegedly cheating six doctors of Rs 39.8 lakh. The complaint was filed based on a statement from one of the doctors, who said the couple were his patients in 2020 and offered to find land for a hospital they planned to start. The couple claimed they owned an office at Mindspace in Malad and could rent out parts of it. The doctors paid Rs 49.8 lakh for rent and other charges, but the couple later said a nephew had taken a loan against the property, so they could not honour the deal. They returned only Rs 10 lakh and allegedly threatened the doctors when asked for the balance, leading to the police complaint. ## Coverage - timesofindia.indiatimes.com Tags: Charkop, cheating, doctors, Mumbai, police FIR, property Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/mumbai-fir-couple-cheated-six-doctors-of-rs-39-8-lakh-over-hospital/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
