Psychiatrist obtains judgement for return of RM5.mil from MIC treasurer-general

KUALA LUMPUR: Newly appointed MIC treasurer-general Datuk R. Ramanan was today ordered by the High Court to return RM5.5mil to psychiatrist Tan Sri Dr M. Mahadevan which he had fraudulently received from the Ministry of Defence when “assisting” Mahadevan to recover the payment four years ago.

Judicial Commissioner Lee Heng Cheong, in his decision, said he agreed with Dr Mahadevan’s counsel that Ramanan had fraudulently misrepresented himself to the plaintiff, resulting in him to transfer the money into the defendant’s personal account on May 19, 2010.
