Hours after a panel probing the allegations of overcharging against Gurugram's Fortis hospital found 'several irregularities' in a case related to the death of a seven-year-old girl, the child's father has accused senior officials of the group of attempting to bribe him.

"Senior members of Fortis met me, offered me a cheque worth Rs 10,37,889 refunding the entire amount," Jayant Singh, father of the deceased girl, told ANI.

"They also said they will be offering me Rs 25 lakh cash on top of this, said that I will have to sign, enter into a legal agreement assuring to stop my social media campaign, or going to court and taking legal action against them," Singh said.  -- ANI
