Ahmedabad Crime Branch unveiled a scam of a pharma company selling vitamin D3 and K2 capsules after being filled with starch instead of the labelled ingredients.

The staff of the crime branch ordered the medicine from a pharma seller Dr Berg, under the guise of a dummy customer and sent it to the Forensic Science Lab for inspection. 

When it was found that the capsules were filled with starch instead of vitamins, a case was registered against the company.

The staff of PI S J Jadeja of Ahmedabad Crime Branch received a tip-off that Dr Berg’s vitamin D3 and K2 capsules available online from Amazon contain harmful content instead of vitamins.

Taking such medicines for a long time can have adverse effects on the health of the user.
