CHINIOT, Nov 6 (APP):The Punjab Food Authority has cracked down on an illegal slaughterhouse in Chiniot, destroying over 400 kg of unhealthy meat. The raid, led by Deputy Director Operations Dr. Muhammad Qasim Raza, was conducted on the orders of DG Food Authority.
The team found poor sanitation arrangements and missing records at the Mohalla Garha slaughterhouse. Fake seals were being used to authenticate the meat, which was deemed unhealthy by a veterinary specialist team.
During the operation, freezers and other equipment were seized, and a case has been registered against the accused. Dr. Raza condemned the “heinous business” of selling unhealthy meat, emphasizing the authority’s commitment to food safety.
