That's the cron-script from Nishant.
The incompatible cron-script from upstream says:
6 * * * * clamav /usr/bin/bash /usr/bin/clamav-unofficial-sigs.sh > 
/dev/null

My suggestion is:
cat << EOF > /var/spool/cron/crontabs/clamav
6 * * * * /usr/bin/clamav-unofficial-sigs.sh > /dev/null
EOF

It is functional if executed as user clamav, as it has to work in 
conjunction with package "clamav", which takes care about the existence 
of the user clamav.
