| Abstract: |
Police have confiscated 23.1 tonnes of milk from a depot in Makutano, Meru County which is suspected to be counterfeit. The officers from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations stormed Musty distribution depot and carted away the 3,850 cartons of Lato long-life milk valued at Sh2.5million to unknown place. Depot manager Pritpal Bhamra said a group of police officers in plain clothes have been visiting the facility since Saturday, claiming that they were looking for counterfeit milk. He said the officials accused them of mixing milk powder with processed milk, thus selling a product that does not meet the set standards. Regarding the seizure, Mr Bhamra said he is also in the dark since the officers did not show any documents or search warrants before carting away the milk. |
