Drugs scandal hits China

Summary

24 April 2012

State media in China say police have seized seventy-seven million drug capsules on suspicion that they were made from industrial waste. They say eighty production lines have been closed and many people arrested.

Reporter:

Viv Marsh1

Report

The mass confiscations of suspect capsules show the authorities' determination to be seen to be acting2 promptly3 after the scandal was uncovered a week ago. 

Chinese television reported then that several companies were making drug capsules from industrial gelatin, containing potentially toxic4 levels of chromium and retrieved5 from discarded scraps6 of leather. 

The safety of food and drugs is a constant public worry in China, with frequent outcries over fake medicines and substandard products. Government investigators7 have now been sent to Zhejiang, Hebei and Jiangxi provinces; state media said large amounts of industrial gelatin were confiscated8 there and in the province of Shandong.

Among those detained are a local official and a sales manager from Hebei, who are suspected of ordering a factory to be burned down to destroy the evidence.
