Hi Everybody! http://www.newsinferno.com/archives/3844
Sanlu—the company at the center of the scandal—fired its general manager and dismissed him from its board. Four men have been arrested; police earlier arrested two brothers who ran a milk collection center and are accused of watering down milk to increase volume then adding melamine, selling about three tons of contaminated milk daily. The brothers could face death if convicted. The raw milk was watered down and melamine was added to fool quality checks. Investigators said the brothers confessed, saying they tainted the product to recover losses when the factory rejected earlier milk shipments. The brothers are charged with producing and selling toxic and hazardous food, which carries a possible death penalty. Health experts say ingesting melamine can lead to kidney stones, urinary tract ulcers, and eye and skin irritation. Tommy, my Chinese American buddy, tells me that although China shoots people who are convicted of things like this some are so stupid that they keep on until they are caught, convicted and shot. -- Regards, Pete http://pete-theisen.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
