Stop the abuse of halal label


CASES pertaining to the abuse of the halal logo surface on a regular basis. The worst so far, which was exposed in December 2020, involved a cartel that had allegedly been bribing customs officials in the import and sale of meat that was not slaughtered according to Islamic customs or was sourced from unapproved suppliers.

The cartel allegedly imported frozen meat from China, Ukraine, Brazil, and Argentina and then repackaged the products in Johor. The imports included kangaroo and horse meat, which were then mixed with and sold as halal beef!
