Border police working with state veterinary inspectors located 3.5 tons of meat, some not stored in suitable conditions, which was all confiscated and an investigation launched, following which the meat will be destroyed.
The meat was smuggled into Yehuda and Shomron from Brazil and made its way to the Atarot industrial park on Jerusalem’s northern border. It is pointed out the meat that was confiscated was not fit for human consumption and yet, it was being prepared to be shipped around the country.
