It is learnt that the injections were found missing on Friday and that the hospital administration has set up a committee to investigate the issue.Highly placed sources within the hospital told Express that these vials were kept in the pharmacy at the Outpatient Building and are suspected to have been misplaced. The box from which they have gone missing is intact.
