The UP Police today "apprehended" Dr Kafeel Khan from Gorakhpur who was removed from his post in the state-run BRD Medical College where 30 children died in two days last month, a senior official said. "Kafeel Khan was apprehended today at around 9 am from Gorakhpur and he is being handed over to Gorakhpur Police," Yash said. Mishra was suspended as principal of the medical college on August 12 after the deaths were reported. The medical college attracted global attention when more than 60 children, mostly infants, died at the hospital within a week last month. The Allahabad High Court had also sought a "detailed report" on the infrastructure and medical facilities at the medical college.
