How was the secret of the scam revealed?
According to a report by India TV, a few months ago the headquarters in Panchkula had investigated the fuel card transactions of ambulances. It was revealed that some ambulances had not even started but diesel was being taken from the petrol pump in their name. This was not a one-time thing.
Entries continued to be recorded. On this basis, fuel worth about Rs 50 lakh was purchased. The department says that during the time diesel was registered, the ambulance did not even move from its place. The department says that two ambulances were standing near the hospital mortuary for 3 to 4 months.
Entry to fill diesel till October 11 has been received from the fuel card of the parked ambulance. The remaining two ambulances were in the agency's workshop since January and August. Records of filling diesel till the dates of 16th September and 11th October have also been found from his card.
