Delhi Court on Thursday refused anticipatory bail to businessman Navneet Kalra in connection with the oxygen concentrator black marketing case being probed by the Delhi Police. 

During a recent raid, 524 oxygen concentrators were recovered from three restaurants owned by Kalra.

As per the prosecution case, Navneet Kalra, along with other co-accused, "hatched a conspiracy" to wrongfully make money by "inducing" the public to buy his oxygen concentrators at an "exorbitant rate" amid a raging pandemic.

Kalra has been on the run since the recovery of the oxygen concentrators. The police said that he could not be tracked despite raids being conducted in Delhi and in adjoining states.
