Illegal cough syrup seizures in India

Overview

Law enforcement agencies in India have conducted multiple operations to seize illegal cough syrup containing controlled substances.

In Ranchi, police arrested three individuals after recovering 570 bottles of Wings Onerex Codeine cough syrup. Authorities stated the group intended to sell the restricted substance at high prices across various locations.

In Ahmedabad, police arrested a man during a ‘No Drugs in the City’ campaign, seizing 387 bottles of syrup containing triprolidine hydrochloride and codeine phosphate. This operation follows a separate, larger seizure earlier in the month by the Ahmedabad Special Operations Group, which intercepted 5,050 bottles of codeine phosphate-based syrup in a parcel at the city’s General Post Office.
