Three or four checks, then one big raid: How a Puchong chicken warehouse that flouted halal rules ran for 20 years

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 31 — A chicken slaughtering and processing warehouse in Puchong, raided under Ops Taring Chiller yesterday, is believed to have operated for 20 years.

Bukit Aman Internal Security and Public Order Department Wildlife Crime Bureau/Special Intelligence and Investigation (WCB/PSK) commander Datuk Mohd Zaki Ashar said investigations identified the warehouse owner as a 34-year-old local man.

“Check results showed this fresh chicken slaughtering and processing warehouse has operated for roughly 20 years.

“Investigations also revealed that the warehouse owner is a 34-year-old local man, and further investigations into the matter will be continued by the Halal Enforcement Division of the Selangor Islamic Religious Department (Jais),” he said when contacted by Bernama today.

He added that during the warehouse’s operation, Jais and relevant enforcement agencies conducted three to four raids and inspections. Yesterday’s raid was the first involving the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) via WCB/PSK.

Mohd Zaki, in a statement yesterday, confirmed that authorities seized over 6.5 tonnes of chicken suspected to have been processed without adhering to Syariah-compliant slaughtering methods and halal certification requirements during the raid on the warehouse in Puchong.

Also detained in Ops Taring Chiller were 12 Bangladeshi and Pakistani men believed to be involved in slaughtering and processing activities at the premises.

The live chicken supply is believed to have been sourced from several poultry farms around Sepang. The processed chicken was distributed to customers including eateries, grocery stores, and supermarkets across the Klang Valley.

The case is being investigated under Section 3(1)(A) and Section 4(1) of the Trade Descriptions (Definition of Halal) Order 2011, as well as Section 38(1) of the Environmental Quality Act 1974. — Bernama

吉隆坡，10 月 31 日讯——昨天在“查封冷藏室行动”中被突击搜查的蒲种一家鸡肉屠宰和加工仓库，据信已运营了 20 年。

武吉阿曼内部安全及公共秩序部门野生动物犯罪局/特别情报及调查局（WCB/PSK）指挥官拿督莫哈末扎基·阿沙尔表示，调查显示仓库所有者是一名34岁的当地男子。

“调查结果显示，这家鲜鸡屠宰加工仓库已经运营了大约 20 年。

“调查还显示，仓库所有者是一名34岁的当地男子，雪兰莪伊斯兰宗教局（Jais）清真执法部门将继续对此事进行进一步调查，”他今天在接受马新社采访时表示。

他补充说，在仓库运营期间，马来西亚伊斯兰事务局（Jais）和相关执法机构进行了三到四次突击检查。昨天的突击检查是马来西亚皇家警察（PDRM）首次通过工人赔偿委员会/警察安全委员会（WCB/PSK）参与的行动。

莫哈末扎基昨天在一份声明中证实，当局在对蒲种仓库进行突击搜查时，查获了超过 6.5 吨的鸡肉，这些鸡肉涉嫌在加工过程中未遵守符合伊斯兰教法的屠宰方法和清真认证要求。

在“塔林冷藏室行动”中，还有 12 名孟加拉国和巴基斯坦男子被拘留，他们被认为参与了该场所的屠宰和加工活动。

据信，这批活鸡来自雪邦周边的几家养鸡场。加工后的鸡肉被分销给巴生谷各地的顾客，包括餐馆、杂货店和超市。

此案正依据2011年《商品说明（清真定义）令》第3(1)(A)条和第4(1)条以及1974年《环境质量法》第38(1)条进行调查。——马新社
