The Consumer Affairs Authority (CAA) today recovered 257,658 packets of 400g milk powder worth around Rs 80 million from a private warehouse in Seeduwa.

The milk powder stocks were hidden away instead of being released into the market, Gampaha District CAA chief Ranjith Weerawardena told Ada Derana.
The authorities also found 540 milk powder (25g) boxes during the raid yesterday.
