The Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry (KPDNHEP) in Selangor has confiscated 6,000 pieces of roti canai dough and 360 chapati dough for using the invalid halal logo in a raid at a company in Setia Alam on Monday according to malaymail.com.
Azman Adam, Selangor KPDNHEP chief enforcement officer said that the raid was conducted by the Selangor Islamic Religious Department and it was based on public complaints against the unidentified company which has been operating for nine months.
Eight foreign workers were making the dough when Islamic religious authorities raided the company in Setia Alam on Monday, the ministry's chief enforcement officer Azman Adam said. The inspection found that the roti canai dough was loaded into 60 boxes while the chapati dough was packed into 12 boxes. All of them worth RM3,063 (US$737).
“Initial investigations found the company owner deliberately displayed the halal logo on the boxes when they did not apply from the Malaysian Islamic Development Department (Jakim),” he told reporters in a media conference here today.
