> Tue 09/09/08 11:56 - Belgian and Ukrainian judicial authorities are
> investigating a case of major fraud involving chicken meat. The meat
> is not suitable for consumption. At the Polish border with Ukraine 32
> lorries were stopped. A total of 1,400 tons of meat were seized,
> bearing false Belgian quality control certificates.
>
> The case came to the attention of the authorities some time ago when
> the Ukrainian authorities intercepted a transport of chicken. The meat
> bore Belgian quality control certificates. The customs officials
> suspected fraud and alerted the authorities in Belgium as well.
>
> Detectives from the Belgian Department of Justice and the Food Agency
> went to Ukraine to investigate.
>
> Four companies in West Europe, one from Belgium, have come under
> suspicion. The Belgian company denies any involvement in the swindle.
>
> The chicken meat was not suitable for human consumption. The
> authorities think it might be meat that was frozen during the dioxin
> crisis in Belgium (end of the 1990s).
>
> The meat was allegedly to be processed in Ukraine into hamburger meat,
> sausages and pita meat and then brought back on to the European
> market. The contaminated meat has already been worked into animal
> fodder.
>
> In Ukraine the authorities are trying to track down the ring leader
> of the swindle. The man has allegedly fled from the authorities.
