Hyderabad: Hyderabad Police Commissioner’s Task Force on Sunday, August 20, arrested a man for allegedly selling adulterated ghee. Nearly 45 kg of adulterated ghee was recovered from his possession.
Acting on a tip-off, police team raided a store belonging to Muthu Naveen, 28, at Monda Market. According to police, Naveen would mix Dalda cooking oil with groundnut oil to prepare a combination then selling it to customers branding it as pure ghee.
