The Story in Brief
Veteran actor Rakesh Bedi has demanded that people who adulterate food, beverages and alcohol be charged with attempted murder. In a video on social media, he argued that such practices put countless consumers' lives at risk for profit. Bedi questioned why there are no stern consequences for offenders.
