ED raids 7 Chennai sites linked to Coldrif maker, drug control officials
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Monday conducted searches at seven locations in Chennai linked to Sreesan Pharma and top officials of the Tamil Nadu Drug Control Department under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). The raids come in connection with the Coldrif cough syrup case, which has led to the deaths of at least 22 children in Madhya Pradesh due to suspected renal failure.
ED officials said the searches covered the residences of senior Tamil Nadu drug control officers and premises associated with Sreesan Pharma, the manufacturer of the toxic syrup. The case, which has sparked nationwide outrage, exposed severe lapses in regulatory oversight and quality control.
