Tirupur: The district food safety and drug administration on Monday seized 1,550 litres of edible oil from an illegal oil packaging unit near Moolanur here.
“Based on a tip-off, officers inspected the unit at Ganesan Pudur and found that sunflower refined oil and groundnut oil were packed in half-litre packs and 15-litre tins under labels like Suguna Gold Sunflower Oil, Jaya Garuda and Tirupathi Groundnut Oils,” said an official. “The address — Alagapuri Nagar in Vellakoil — on the labels was fake. The unit was also functioning without a licence. But it printed false licence number on packets,” the official added.
