KUALA LUMPUR: The word “dog” was not the reason behind Auntie Anne's pretzel chain not receiving its halal certification, said the Malaysian Islamic Development Department (Jakim).  

Jakim halal division director Dr Sirajuddin Suhaimee said his words were taken out of context and blown out of proportion by the media.
