The three suspects were arrested yesterday (17) in connection with the alleged sale of medicines at higher prices through a third party.
Subsequently, the group was produced before Colombo Additional Magistrate Harshana Kekunawela by officials of CIABOC.
CIABOC officials informed the Magistrate that investigations into the incident had not yet been completed, and therefore requested that the suspects be remanded.
Accepting the request, the Magistrate ordered that the suspects be remanded until June 24.
