Another fresh angle which will now be probed includes an incident from 2018, where Khan had tried to treat children at the district hospital in Bahraich.
The 15-page report does not hold Khan guilty of "medical negligence" and says that he had made all efforts to control the situation when the hospital was dealing with oxygen shortage.
The arrest was made by a team led by Superintendent of Police (City) Vinay Singh and CO Rai, on the direction of Senior Superintendent of Police Shalabh Mathur.
Kafeel's brother, Adeel Khan, said he was arrested just before he was going to address reporters on the deaths due to acute encephalitis syndrome in the state.
Adeel, elder brother of Dr. Kafeel Ahmad Khan, and his associate Mohammad Faizan have been booked for allegedly opening a bank account using fake documents.
It’s the media that made me a hero and then made me a villain, Dr Kafeel Khan tells Outlook in an exclusive interview, a year after the Gorakhpur hospital tragedy.
