Six senior executives of the scandal-ridden Shanghai Husi Food Co were formally arrested on Friday over charges of producing and selling counterfeit products, said the municipal procuratorate.
The official
arrests were approved by the Second Branch of the Shanghai Municipal People's
Procuratorate. The procuratorate said a man named Hu Jun was among those
arrested, but refused to provide more details.
OSI China,
the parent company of Shanghai Husi, confirmed on its website six employees
have been arrested and said it will continue to cooperate fully with
authorities.
The food
scandal was first exposed after a local TV station reported on July 20 that
Shanghai Husi had supplied products tainted with reprocessed, expired meat to a
string of fast food chains and restaurants across China.
Chinese
food and industry watchdogs immediately launched a probe into the scandal.
