The commercial inspection department at the Ministry of Commerce and Industry held sudden inspections at several supermarkets and department stores in Shuwaikh yesterday, which resulted in confiscating 1,440 bottles of a popular beverage that is widely consumed during Ramadan. Rasheedi said the bottles were fake and did not have expiry dates. He added that the fake beverage was confiscated and the owners were referred to commercial prosecution. The campaigns were held under the supervision of the ministry’s assistant undersecretary for supervision Eid Al-Rasheedi, and as part of its plans to control prices and foodstuff quality before Ramadan.
