NEW DELHI, Nov 29 — The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) has issued non-bailable arrest warrants against the owners of Digital Vision, a Kala Amb-based pharmaceutical company, for their alleged role in a Rs 600-crore drug diversion racket.
The accused include Ambala residents Parshotam Lal Goyal and his sons Konic Goyal and Manic Goyal, who allegedly diverted psychotropic substances across seven states through fictitious distributor firms.
“Digital Vision acted as the key manufacturing and supply hub for the illicit distribution,” NCB officials said. “The firm supplied large quantities of tramadol capsules and codeine phosphate cough syrup to firms that existed only on paper in Jodhpur and Dehradun.”
The agency began its probe after Anuj Kumar, a company partner, was arrested on November 1. During investigations, the NCB has seized 611 kg of psychotropic powder, 573 kg of tramadol bulk mixture, 12 lakh psychotropic tablets, 50,000 tramadol ampoules and 5,000 vials of midazolam.
So far, authorities have recovered more than 34 lakh psychotropic tablets, 10.57 lakh cough syrup bottles, 1,613 kg of raw material and 573 kg of tramadol mixture, and have arrested 15 individuals linked to the network.
Digital Vision previously faced allegations in 2020 after a cough syrup manufactured by the company was linked to the deaths of 12 infants in Udhampur, officials noted. The NCB said investigations are ongoing.
