10 people implicated in rotten meat case
Print Edition
THE chief executive of Shanghai Husi Food Co, the company at the center of last year’s rotten meat scandal, has been formally charged with producing and selling inferior food products.
Hu Jun was among 10 people charged at the Jiading District prosecutors office. His co-defendants included Yang Liqun, general manager of the processing department at Husi’s parent OSI Group China.
Prosecutors did not release full details of the charges, but said all 10 people were employees of either OSI or its Husi units in Shanghai and north China’s Hebei Province. More information will be provided in due course by the Shanghai People’s Prosecutors Office, they said.
Husi’s food processing plant in Jiading District was raided by officials from the Shanghai Food and Drug Administration following the broadcast in July last year of a television program that accused it of using out-of-date and substandard meat.
The company, which supplies McDonald’s and Yum Brands — parent of KFC, Carl’s Jr and Burger King — was found to have altered production dates on more than 4,000 cases of smoked beef patties.
