The health department sealed a private hospital in Muzzaffarnagar allegedly for lack of a licence and arrested two people, officials said Saturday.

They said the action was taken after a health department team conducted a raid at City Hospital last evening when the owner allegedly failed to produce a proper licence to run the medical facility.

City Magistrate Abhishek Kumar Singh said a team led by drugs inspector Luv Kush Kumar checked the hospital and also seized medicines worth lakhs of rupees.

The owner failed to show any document authorising him to run a hospital, he said, adding two employees of the facility have been arrested.
