Queensland Health Board says he lied on his resume

MELBOURNE: Australian authorities have cancelled the registration of Indian doctor Mohammed Asif Ali after Queensland Health decided last week to sack him for lying on his resume.

The medical board said that Ali's registration was cancelled on the grounds that he lied to the board by deliberately including false information in the resume provided in his application. Board chairwoman Mary said the decision did not relate to his clinical competence or his qualifications, which had been independently verified.

If  Ali was to return to Australia, the board will commence prosecution action against him for breaching the Medical Practitioners Registration Act 2001, Cohn said. Ali had been told of the decision on Wednesday, The Australian reported. Queensland Health launched a misconduct investigation after Ali publicly admitted to forging parts of his resume relating to his work experience in India.
