It is a story of how the rich powerful can almost buy the system and sabotage the rules and regulations which the aam aadmi is supposed to follow in his entire life.

Yadav brothers, Vikas and Vishal, both serving life imprisonment for murdering Nitish Katara, have been living luxurious lives in some of the premier hospitals in the capital.

In the last three and a half years, the duo, sons of former member of Parliament D P Yadav, have gone out of the prison 85 times for medical reasons.

“These days it is very easy for such people to misuse the system. We see it every time a politician is sent to prison. He always lands up in a hospital, “Nitish’ mother, Neelam Katara told Governance Now.

According to a news report aired on CNN IBN, Vikas Yadav was out of Tihar prison on 66 occasions between May 2008 and February 2010 for medical reasons. Out of these, he visited AIIMS on 59 outings.

Recently, Vikas spent around a month in room no. 302 in the new private ward of AIIMS.

However, he was abruptly discharged without any diagnosis.

Doctors at AIIMS told the news channel that Vikas was supposed to undergo a PET scan but was discharged as the Tihar prison, where he is lodged since 2008, did not make any payments for the diagnosis.

“The doctors later confirmed that Vikas was discharged abruptly without any scan whatsoever, which means the main purpose for which he was brought to AIIMS wasn't even fulfilled.,” said the report.

Neelam Katara’s lawyer Kaushik Dey obtained this information through right to information (RTI) act.

“We are planning to dig out similar information about other high profile inmates in the prison,” Dey told Governance Now.

Documents reveal that Vikas’ cousin Vishal visited Batra hospital 19 times between July 2008 and June 2010.

Yadav brothers are lodged in Delhi’s Tihar prison since 2008.
