Gambia cough syrup scandal: Police investigate deaths linked to Indian medicine- PublishedPolice in The Gambia are investigating the deaths of 66 children, which have been linked to four brands of imported Indian cough syrup.On Wednesday, the World Health Organization (WHO) issued a global alert over the four cough syrups - warning they could be linked to acute kidney injuries and the children's deaths in July, August and September.The products - Promethazine Oral Solution, Kofexmalin Baby Cough Syrup, Makoff Baby Cough Syrup and Magrip N Cold Syrup - were manufactured by an Indian company, Maiden Pharmaceuticals, which had failed to provide guarantees about their safety, the WHO said.On Friday, President Barrow addressed the nation, expressing his regret for the loss of life saying that "the source of the contaminated drugs" would be investigated.Some of the parents who lost their children have told the BBC that they are considering taking legal action of their own against the authorities."
