One was arrested for allegedly making pure cow's milk at home with powder, water, and chemicals in Manikganj.

The identity of the arrestee is Ataur Rahman. He was selling adulterated milk for the last six years

However, in this raid, more than 150 liters of adulterated milk were found.

According to the information, hundreds of liters of adulterated milk were prepared every day at midnight and sent to the Capital. This milk is being supplied at high prices to different markets of Dhaka every day, as the demand for pure milk from village cows is high.

The Upazila administration of Saturia and the district consumer rights protection department jointly conducted an operation on the basis of secret information on Tuesday (August 2).

Meanwhile, Upazila Nirbahi Officer (UNO) Sharmin Ara sentenced Ataur Rahman to one month's imprisonment.
