Gurugram: The manager of the Gurugran restaurant found himself in police custody just a day after distressing videos emerged on social media, showing five customers experiencing severe mouth bleeding purportedly after consuming mouth fresheners.

The five customers, who had fallen ill after consuming the mouth freshener, were discharged from the hospital late last night. Medical authorities have indicated that their conditions have stabilized.
