Illegal Arms Supplier Receives VIP Treatment in Custody

Lokesh Aggarwal, also known as Sonu, an alleged supplier of illegal arms to the Professor Gang in Raipur, has reportedly been seen receiving VIP treatment while in judicial custody at government-run Dr. Ambedkar (Mekahara) Hospital.

The accused has been admitted to Ward 8 of the Dr. Ambedkar (Mekahara) Hospital, claiming to suffer from respiratory issues on October 19. Despite his health investigation reports being normal, he was kept in the Hospital and alleged of getting VIP treatments flouting the norms of a prisoner in some media reports.

It was alleged that during his hospital stay, the accused was allowed to meet his relatives without handcuffs and openly engaged in phone conversations in the presence of police officers.

Although two officers are assigned to monitor him outside the ward, they reportedly do not check anyone entering or leaving.
