More than 500 kilos of tainted meat were seized in a series of raids conducted by the National Meat Inspection Service in Metro Manila before dawn Friday.
Some of the vendors protested the raids as they claimed they were not told what their violations were, radio dzBB's Allan Gatus reported.
The report said the team seized 385 kilos of frozen meat at the Balintawak Market in Quezon City.
Another batch of tainted meat, this time of chicken, was seized at the Marikina Public Market, it added.
The NMIS had been busy since December going after tainted meat, including meat that was not properly stored in markets. –KG, GMA News
