Former IPS officer Amitabh Thakur, currently jailed on fraud charges, was hospitalized after experiencing heart-related discomfort. He was initially taken to a Deoria medical college and then referred to Gorakhpur for further treatment. Thakur was arrested for allegedly misusing his position to fraudulently obtain an industrial plot. He claims his arrest is linked to his criticism of the state government. His bail plea was recently rejected, and a remand hearing is scheduled.
