Pharmacy Scam
June 24, 2009
A pharmacy technician at Duane Reade was arrested on June 3 for bilking the store out of $67,621, starting in July 2008. Police said that Kavita Bharath, 24, would create a new prescription, sell it and then later refund the money from a drug clerk’s register into a Bank of America account. Bharath, a three-year employee of the 1498 York Ave. store, at East 80th Street, was arrested and charged with grand larceny.
