Prakasam: Recently a big news has come from Andhra Pradesh. 16 people have died due to drinking sanitizer in Prakasam district. It is being told that these people were addicted to alcohol and in the absence of alcohol, they used sanitizer to get intoxicated. It is being told that methanol was mixed in that sanitizer. The police has arrested 10 people for the illegal distribution of it.

Talking about the matter, the Superintendent of Police (Prakasam) said that a special sanitizer named 'Perfect Gold' caused the death of all as it was made of toxic methanol instead of ethanol. On the other hand, talking about the reports coming out, then the people who lost their lives were addicted to alcohol and they used hand sanitizer as an alternative to alcohol. This is not the first case, but many such reports have come before this. 

Last month, regular liquor shops were closed in Kurichedu in Prakasam district in lockdown. Due to this all this has happened. In this case, the police said, "Mohammad Dawood and Mohammed Haji Saab of Gidimetla, Hyderabad supplied methanol and other materials to make Srinivas a sanitizer." He also said, 'Our SIT arrested these five persons. Later the owners of five medical shops in Kurichedu were also arrested for serious negligence.'
