Sahou said the seven men used the flat like a chemistry lab to make pesticides, and slept there as well.
?We found two to three mobile phones under each of their pillows as well as bill books that they used to bill their customers.?
He explained that they had differently named companies, that did not exist, and hence were not licensed.
The team also found multiple kinds of pesticides and gas masks, including the posionous aluminium phosphide.
?They had scratched out and hid the warning labels on the aluminium phosphide tube, which means they knew that the substance was dangerous.? Sahou said. The label read ?poison?...
