A food supplier based in the US state of Iowa is accused of marketing its products as halal to Muslims worldwide, when its meats were in fact not produced in accordance with Islamic standards.
US Federal prosecutors said that Midamar Corp. sold about $4.9 million in beef to customers in Malaysia, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates under the false pretense that its cattle were slaughtered in accordance with Islamic law, TIME reported.
The lawsuit contends that Midamar told customers that Muslim slaughtermen killed its cattle by hand.Yet Midamar’s primary beef supplier was a Minnesota-based meatpacking plant that uses bolt stunning, which involves shooting a steel-rod through the cow’s brain, according to the lawsuit.
