He was arrested for allegedly running a medical clinic and treating patients at Koogayur village for Covid-19. Police and health officials recovered syringes, tablets, medicines and injections from the clinic.
Porchezhiyan (60), who does not possess a medical degree, is alleged to have administered medicines to patients with Covid-19 symptoms as well as for other ailments.
