MELAKA, Oct 29 — Authorities raided a frozen meat outlet in Ayer Keroh for displaying the word “halal” on its signboard without a valid Malaysian Halal Certification (SPHM).
Melaka KPDN director Mohd Hazimin Jamaludin said 28.85kg of frozen meat worth RM7,802 bearing an unauthorised halal logo was seized during a joint operation with Jaim today.
The business owner failed to produce a halal certificate and was found violating the Trade Descriptions (Definition of Halal) Order 2011. The outlet was also fined for using an unverified weighing scale.
Hazimin reminded traders not to misuse halal labels and urged the public to report suspicious activities. — Bernama
