Expired branded food products intercepted before reaching online markets

The Delhi police’s anti‑fraud cell intercepted a large consignment of expired international food products that were slated to be listed on popular e‑commerce websites. The investigators discovered that the gang altered nutritional information stickers and expiry dates, making the items appear as newly manufactured. Items confiscated during the raid included popular soft‑drink bottles, powdered drink mixes, and ready‑to‑eat meals. The police statement highlighted that the racket’s modus operandi involved sourcing the stale stock at minimal cost, re‑labeling, and then distributing them through illegal channels to unsuspecting consumers.
