The HCM City People’s Committee has asked the city’s Department of Agriculture and Rural Development to publicise the names of 13 slaughterhouses located within the Xuyên Á slaughterhouse complex in the city’s Củ Chi District for illegally injecting pigs with sedatives.
After the discovery of thousands of pigs injected with sedatives in a large slaughterhouse complex in Củ Chi District, HCM City authorities have ordered the immediate killing of all injected animals.
About 3,750 pigs at a slaughter house in HCM City tested positive for sedatives, said Phạm Tiến Dũng, head of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development inspectorate
