Central Crime Branch (CCB) police busted two rackets involving sale of Remdesivir and oxygen in the black market as part of their crackdown on illegal sale of COVID-19 related materials. Acting on a tip-off, the Sanjay Nagar police arrested a person allegedly trying to sell a dose of Remdesivir in the range of ₹30,000 to ₹40,000, and seized two vials of the medicine. The accused, Krishna, is a housekeeping manager at Matru Hospital on Hosur Road. His interrogation led the police to a doctor, who procured the vials from the hospital’s stock. The doctor, Sagar, tried to sell the vials in black through Krishna, said the police. The vials were allotted by the Karnataka government for a patient at the hospital, sources said.
