Factory making fake spices using donkey dung, acid raided in Hathras, sealed TNN | Dec 16, 2020, 04.00 AM IST Printed from Agra: Acting on a tip-off, Hathras police on Monday night raided a spice manufacturing unit making spurious and counterfeit spices of local brands using donkey dung and acid in the district’s Navipur area. Police arrested its owner Anoop Varshney who is the ‘Mandal Sah Prabhari’ of Hindu Yuva Vahini, a youth organistaion founded in 2002 by Yogi Adityanath. Talking to TOI, joint magistrate Prem Prakash Meena said, “We have seized over 300 kg of fake spices being packed in names of some local brands.” He added that during the raid, several spurious ingredients used to prepare the fake spices were found, including donkey dung, hay (bhusa), inedible colours and drums full of acids. The recovered adulterated spices included coriander powder, red chilli powder, turmeric and spice mix (garam masala). Around 27 samples have been sent for tests and an FIR will be registered under the Food Safety & Standards Act, 2006 once the lab report comes, he said. Varshney has been remanded to judicial custody under section 151 of the CrPC (arrest to prevent the commission of cognizable offences). Meena told TOI that Varshney was unable to provide a licence for operating the spice factory at the location where it was being run. “He also could not produce the licence of the brands, which were being packed,” he said, adding that it is also being checked if the ingredients, prepared in the unit for making spurious spices, were supplied to other units in the city too. According to food department officials, the adulterants might prove to be a health hazard, especially if consumed over a long period of time.
