Police have smashed a gang suspected of churning out fake and dangerous weight-loss drugs in Lincolnshire. The illegal operation was uncovered after raids at two sites on Tuesday, 24 February.
Illicit Labs Raided in Newton and Grantham
Officers stormed a large agricultural building in Newton, near Sleaford, which had reportedly been turned into a dodgy drug factory. Another raid targeted a residential property in Grantham. Despite the haul, no arrests have been made so far.
Last October, a similar raid in Northamptonshire uncovered over 2,000 unlicensed injection pens worth £250,000, plus thousands more empty pens, chemicals, and £20,000 in cash.
This latest bust highlights the growing threat of fake health products flooding the market, putting lives on the line.
