Delhi Police have dismantled a significant racket involved in the illegal sale of government-supplied medicines that were meant for free distribution in hospitals. The operation led to the arrest of five individuals, including Neeraj Kumar, a pharmacist at Deen Dayal Upadhyay Hospital in New Delhi, and a contractual helper. Authorities seized medicines valued at ₹70 lakh (approximately $84,000 USD) along with a tempo and a car used for transportation. The police revealed that the accused were apprehended in the Tis Hazari area while transporting consignments clearly marked as 'Govt supply, not for sale'. Investigations indicated that the racket had been active for over a year, with medicines being siphoned from hospital stocks and sold through a network of brokers across various cities. Neeraj Kumar was found to have manipulated stock records, while the helper facilitated the extraction and delivery of the medicines. A case has been registered, and further investigations are underway to uncover additional members of the network and trace financial transactions.
