AIIMS Patna's chief cashier, Anurag Aman, was arrested on charges of criminal breach of trust, fraud, and misappropriation of funds. An internal audit revealed Aman allegedly held patient cash for up to three days before depositing it. He claimed this was for exigencies, but lacked approval and could not immediately produce the funds. The amount has since been returned, and disciplinary proceedings are ongoing, with AIIMS stating a zero-tolerance policy on financial misconduct.
