This picture taken on Nov. 9, 2015, shows a customer buying fish at a food market in Qingdao, eastern China’s Shandong province. Fish exported by China to Brazil have reportedly been found to have been adulterated with water or chemical injected into the produce to make them heavier. AFP FILE BRASÍLIA, Brazil — Brazilian police said Tuesday they have uncovered a ring that imported Chinese fish illegally adulterated to be heavier and as such, worth more when resold. Investigators from the agriculture ministry in the southern state of Santa Catarina found local businesses selling adulterated pollock, hake and other imported species, police said in a statement. |
