The nine persons arrested from Uttar Pradesh for their alleged involvement in supplying chalk powder instead of paracetamol power to a pharma company of Daman were sent to police remand till July 12 on Saturday.
The case was lodged based on a complaint by Ajit Sharma, who works with the Softech Pharma company in Daman, against Euro Asia Chemical company with the Daman police station.
In the complaint, Sharma had claimed that his pharma company had paid Rs. 9.75 lakh as an advance payment for the delivery of paracetamol in power form to the Euro Asia Chemical company in Delhi.
After receiving the stock of five tonnes of paracetamol in powder form, the pharma company took samples from the consignment and got it tested in the laboratory and found only 2 per cent of paracetamol in it, while the remaining 98 per cent was chalk powder, the complainant alleged.

The arrested ones were identified as Prashant Shrivastav, Ompal Singh, Pankaj Sharma, Tufail Khan, Satyaprakash Yadav, and Mohammed Jeeshan, and three women (names not disclosed by police), all residents of Kanpur and employees of Euro Asia Bio-Chemical company.
