Issuing a statement on the late-night faceoff between ex-Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis and Mumbai police over 60,000 vials of Remdesivir, police on Sunday confirmed that the pharmaceutical company was let off after questioning. Stating that ban of Remdesivir export had alerted them of the pharmaceutical company stocking of a large quantity of the drug, Mumbai police clarified that the company had been called by BKC Police Station for inquiry. Later, on the intervention of Fadnavis and Praveen Darekar, BKC police was informed that the company had acquired permission from the Drugs Controller General of India (DGCI) for domestic distribution of Remdesivir.

"Mumbai Police acted in good faith. The director of the pharmaceutical company was called for inquiry in order to trace and seize a large quantity i.e., 60,000 vials, of the life-saving medicine Remdesevir based on a specific input verified by facts. LoP Devendra Fadanvis said permission was taken from Commissioner FDA to donate the stock of Remdesevir vials to the Maharashtra Govt, as Remdesevir stocked for export cannot be diverted to the domestic market without permission from DCGI. The director of the pharmaceutical company was questioned and later allowed to go after asking him to be present for inquiry whenever called," read the police's statement.
