HIBAPRESS – Mohamed Daher
This Tuesday morning, the administrative police services affiliated with the Essaouira commune managed to seize approximately 120 kilograms of turkey meat, which was found to be unfit for consumption. The meat was being transported by a handcart under conditions that did not meet health and safety standards.
According to available data, the seized quantity was intended for sale in a commercial establishment on Zerktouni Street, locally known as "Al Khadara," before the competent authorities intervened to prevent it from reaching consumers.
Necessary measures were taken, and the seized meat was destroyed according to established procedures, as part of intensified monitoring of food products and combating practices that could pose a risk to citizens' health.
This incident reaffirms the importance of strengthening health monitoring of meat transportation, storage, and marketing operations, to protect consumers and ensure the quality of products offered for sale.
