Mumbai, Feb. 13 -- A week after he was removed as executive director of Lilavati Hospital and Research Centre in Bandra, former Mumbai police commissioner Param Bir Singh on Thursday filed an application before the charity commissioner challenging his termination. Singh was removed from the position on February 5, hours after he filed a criminal complaint alleging malpractices at the Lilavati Kirtilal Mehta Medical Trust (LKMMT), which runs the top hospital, and accusing permanent trustees Rajiv and Prashant Mehta of committing illegal acts. "I have filed a petition before the charity commissioner for setting aside the illegal order of termination of my services and also for action against some of the trustees indulging in illegal activities and against the interests of the trust," Singh said. Rajiv and Prashant Mehta have, in turn, accused Singh and their brother Rajesh Mehta, also a permanent trustee, of forging the minutes of a board meeting held in July 2024 with the intention of usurping control of the trust. In his complaint addressed to the deputy commissioner of police (zone IX) on February 6, Prashant Mehta alleged that Rajesh Mehta, Singh and six other former employees of the LKMMT had hatched a criminal conspiracy to siphon off over Rs.100 crore and tried to unlawfully gain control of the trust's affairs. He also alleged that Singh and Rajesh Mehta tried to engineer a "coup and mutiny" within the trust and the hospital administration. Singh, in his police complaint filed on February 5, accused Prashant Mehta, Rajiv Mehta, and others of malpractice and misappropriation of trust funds. He claimed he was compelled to file the complaint after the trust failed to act on the concerns he had raised. Prashant Mehta, however, said in his complaint that Singh's allegations were "an ironic work of fiction born out of narcissistic imagination." He also sent a reminder to the DCP on February 10, seeking the immediate registration of an FIR against Singh, Rajesh Mehta and others....
