Digital desk: As part of a probe into money laundering connected to a racket for producing and distributing illegal cancer drugs, the Enforcement Directorate raided at least ten premises in Delhi-NCR on Monday.
The primary suspect and his collaborators, Viphil Jain, Suraj Shat, Neeraj Chauhan, Parvez Malik, Komal Tiwari, Abhinay, and Tushar Chauhan, were the targets of these raids. The directorate has retrieved approximately Rs 65 lakh in cash from two different places and an additional Rs 23 lakh from Suraj Shat's residence. Shat used a bean bag to conceal the cash.
The agency has seized incriminating documents and information about the accused's movable and immovable assets were also taken from the residence. Investigators believe the group targeted more than 200 cancer patients, and they are currently tracking them down.
Seven people were arrested on Wednesday after the Delhi Police ISC's crime division discovered a scheme to produce and resell fake chemotherapy and cancer medications. The vials, which were offered for outrageous prices, were loaded with inexpensive, arbitrary medications.
Depending on the brand that was refilled, the gang sold each injection vial for between Rs 1-3 lakh in the market, having spent at least Rs 150-200 on each one.
Four other individuals who were involved in the last-mile distribution of these vials and worked at different cancer treatment centers were taken into custody by police on Friday. The accused are Jitendra, 33, Majid Khan, 34, and Sajid, 33, all of Gurugram, Haryana, and Rohit Singh Bisht, 36, a resident of New Moti Nagar.
During the interrogation an accused named Neeraj Chauhan was purchasing filled vials, supposedly from medical staff, the four individuals were taken into custody, according to the police.
Bisht is employed by a reputable hospital in Delhi as the daycare supervisor for the chemotherapy unit. He gave Neeraj filled vials of Keytruda and Opdyta. A senior police officer stated that he would sell Neeraj the vials from the patient's dose that he had saved.
Bisht, who holds a general nursing diploma, used to receive Rs 35,000 for Opdyta and Rs 65,000 for Keytruda. For the past ten years, he has been employed at the hospital. During a marketing visit to the hospital, Neeraj brought him in. The official stated that he was taken into custody on Wednesday from Dwarka.
Police said Neeraj visited him with empty vials and packing. Sajid is a nurse staff member in a Gurugram hospital's cancer department. He used to provide Khan with Opdyta and Keytruda. According to the authorities, they found three empty vials, a box, and two Opdyta packing in his hands.
Police said that they had confiscated 14 bank accounts with a combined deposit of Rs 92.81 lakh from the offenders during the course of the investigation. In accordance with the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), the Enforcement Directorate initiated an inquiry into a case brought by the Delhi Police under sections 274, 275, 276, 420, 468, 471, 120B, and 34 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
