The Criminal Security Sector, represented by the General Department of Criminal Investigation, then investigated the matter. The authorities set up an ambush in which he agreed to provide abortion pills at his clinic. They found 49 abortion pills and 115 psychotropic pills at his home. He later confessed to the charges and said that he had illegally obtained the pills from abroad.
