The contents of the packets would amount to about 7,600 litres.<\/p>\n<p>Related to this, five individuals who are associated with different city hospitals were arrested. Two of them are Dlibagh Singh, the chief lab attendant and Paramjeet Singh-a former employee of Adesh Hospital. The rest included Paramjit Singh, a lab technician of Max Hospital, his brother,Narinder Singh and also the driver of the truck which carried the packets and was seized by the police.<\/p>\n<p>The culprits were apprehended following a tip off that the police received. The 21, 752 packs were seized from the refrigeration facility within the truck.<\/p>\n<p>To give the fake substance the appearance of blood plasma-which when isolated is light yellow in colour, the culprits used a mix of refined oil, soya bean milk and egg yolk. The fake products were to be marketed to Reliance Life Sciences. The institute has paid a Rs.20 Lakh advance to the accused for procuring 5,000 litres of blood plasma. The total cost of the order would be at least Rs.1.25 crore. The blood plasma was apparently intended for use in beauty products.<\/p>\n<p>A case has been registered against the five arrested, under section 420,120 B IPC and drugs and cosmetics act.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2927\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2927\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2927\" src=\"http:\/\/www.dailyrounds.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/plasma-healthcarepackaging.jpg\" alt=\"Blood plasma-This one an example of the real thing\" width=\"800\" height=\"532\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dailyrounds.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/plasma-healthcarepackaging.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.dailyrounds.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/plasma-healthcarepackaging-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dailyrounds.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/plasma-healthcarepackaging-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dailyrounds.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/plasma-healthcarepackaging-787x523.jpg 787w, https:\/\/www.dailyrounds.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/plasma-healthcarepackaging-400x266.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2927\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Blood plasma-This one an example of the real thing<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Elaborate plans for the crime, says police<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The police mentioned that to carry out the crime, the accused made some elaborate plans.
