24 seized Remdesivir injections found fake
The 24 Remdesivir injections, which were recovered by the Ambala Police last month, have been found to be fake.
As per the Health Department, the injections were sent to the company for verification and it confirmed that the vials were fake.
Civil Surgeon Ambala Dr Kuldeep Singh said, “The police had recovered 24 injections of Remdesivir last month and the sample was sent to the company. The injections were fake. The matter is being investigated.”
On April 21, police officials on curfew duty checked two vehicles. During checking, they seized 24 injections of “Hetero Remdesivir” from one of the cars.
The four men failed to produce any bill or give any satisfactory reply regarding the injections.
The accused claimed that they had arranged the injections for a Covid patient in Delhi. However, the police suspected that they had procured the injections for sale. The investigation was handed over to the CIA-2.
Last week, the CIA-2 unit arrested Gaurav, a resident of Yamunanagar, who had supplied the injections. The 24 injections were sold for Rs 1.20 lakh.
