Gurugram, Feb 8 (IANS) The joint team of Chief Minister Flying Squad Gurugram, Health and Drugs Control Department, on Tuesday busted a fake diagnostic lab allegedly providing fraudulent Covid report for Rs 2,000 to Rs 5,000.
On information through a reliable source, the CM flying wing raided SRL Diagnostic Lab which was running at House No NR-24, Ground Floor, Nathupur Road, DLF Phase-3, Gurugram. It used to provide "desired" Covid reports to customers.
The lab was owned by Anuj Sharma on a monthly rent of Rs 18,000 for about 5 months.
The Police have nabbed an accused Sanjeev (22), a resident of Mahipalpur, Delhi and lab operator from the spot while Anuj Sharma was not found on the spot.
Police have seized Rs 12,500, fake Covid reports, laptop, printer, a rubber stamp, mobile and other documents from the spot.
Haresh, head of the raiding team, said they got information about the lab which was running the racket for the past five months and took action. An FIR has been registered against the accused at the DLF Phase-3 police station.
Interestingly, the move comes a week after neighbouring Madhya Pradesh permitted liquor sales at all its airports, select supermarkets in four major cities and also allowed issuing home bar licences to those earning Rs 1 crore or more annually.
The incident took place on Wednesday and the accused are said to be illicit liquor sellers in the area. It has been alleged that the woman was also gang-raped. A video of the incident showed the woman being attacked.
