Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents have taken Los Angeles family practice physician Levon Tebelekian, 72, into custody after an investigation revealed that he was allegedly charging immigrants a fee in exchange for disease-free medical reports.

Allegedly, Dr. Tebelekian was charging patients $150 each to fill-out a medical exam form with a favorable result. No examinations or tests were ever actually performed.

ICE claims that on one occasion, Dr. Tebelekian told an undercover agent that he would not "disturb his blood" and that he "did not look like he had AIDS.â€
