Fatwa Council: Cadbury products are still halal

PUTRAJAYA: Cadbury products, which were confirmed as 'halal' before they were claimed to contain porcine DNA, are still deemed so and can be consumed by Muslims, according to the National Fatwa Council.

National Fatwa Council Committee chairman Prof Emeritus Tan Sri Dr Abdul Shukor Husin said these products were included in the 'Umum al-Balwa' category (a widespread problem difficult to avoid).
