A special investigation team (SIT) on Monday arrested Mallika and Sharat Pant, co-owners of Max Corporate Services, the firm accused of conducting over 1 lakh fake Covid tests during the Kumbh mela at Haridwar earlier this year.

The Pants, who are main accused in the matter, had been evading arrest for the past few months and had been declared 'proclaimed offenders’ by court. They were arrested early morning from their residence in sector 49, Noida. They had also applied for anticipatory bail over a week ago, but their plea was turned down by the Uttarakhand high court.
