Investigators Search Leverkusen Building In Fraud Probe
Investigators searched a building in Leverkusen on Wednesday morning as part of an ongoing probe into Halal product certification. The investigation follows research by BR regarding the compliance of certain products with Islamic dietary laws. Investigators are looking into whether specific service providers are involved in improper certification practices. The company under investigation has not yet been reached for comment. The presumption of innocence applies. Authorities suspect companies used sham seats to claim activity where none existed. A service provider is also being investigated for allegedly assisting in tax evasion. This search follows investigations into similar suspected activities in Monheim.
