A food safety operation in Lahore's Kot Lakhpat area resulted in the destruction of 900 kilograms of meat from animals infected with lumpy skin disease. The Punjab Food Authority (PFA) seized the meat from a beef shop and the vehicle used to transport it. The meat had developed a foul odor and changed color, making it unfit for human consumption.
A veterinary specialist confirmed the animals had been illegally slaughtered with lumpy skin disease and their meat prepared for sale. The PFA director general authorized the destruction of the entire consignment to prevent any further sale or consumption. This operation was carried out following the PFA's directive to halt the distribution of unsafe meat.
