Matthew Lani, a fraudulent individual who had been deceiving others with false claims, was finally caught by security guards at Helen Joseph Hospital last night.

The Department of Health confirmed the apprehension, revealing that Lani was discovered attempting to enter the hospital through the main entrance while disguised with a surgical mask, hooded jacket, and a stethoscope around his neck.

"He had previously gained access to the facility, spreading misleading content by pretending to be a qualified doctor," stated Motalatale Modiba, the department's spokesperson.

According to a video reportedly taken by the security guards, Lani, wearing a SpongeBob T-shirt, was seen with a bleeding lower lip, allegedly due to his unsuccessful escape attempt.

"After being apprehended, Lani asked to use the restroom, but instead attempted to flee by jumping through a bathroom window. When security guards noticed his escape attempt, they called for backup, leading to his subsequent recapture."

Modiba mentioned that the police were immediately notified, and Lani has now been handed over to them for official arrest.

Lani had been masquerading as a doctor for years and recently trended after a video he made claiming he was the youngest doctor in existence.

He claimed he acquired his medical qualifications at Witwatersrand but the institution denied having any association with him.
