Two fruit sellers in Mumbai’s Malad West area have been arrested after a video appeared to show them applying rat poison to fruits offered for sale. The incident came to light on Wednesday when police from Malad took action following a complaint from a local resident, accompanied by video evidence. Officers recovered a substance identified as Ratol — a commercially available rat-killing product containing toxic chemicals such as yellow phosphorus — from the vendors’ roadside stall, which has since been sealed.
