The officials of food safety, revenue, police and Corporation conducted a raid at illegal slaughterhouses in Kunjalumoodu on Friday morning. Most of the slaughterhouses were working from houses. According to officials, around 20 such houses were raided. All of these were working without licences and proper waste treatment facilities.
“The raid was conducted as we got complaints that diseased cattle were being sold from these illegal outlets. We found stale meat as well as animal waste piled up,” said an official. There was minor opposition from the owners of the shops, but the presence of the police kept the situation from getting out of control. An investigation has been ordered to ascertain the purpose for which the fat contents were bottled.
