A mobile court in Lakshmipur’s BSCIC industrial area fined Abu Taher Chana Company Tk 300,000 for producing fake ghee. The operation, led by Assistant Commissioner (Land) and Executive Magistrate Abhi Dash on July 21, 2026, seized 38 cartons of counterfeit ghee. The company’s manager and technician, Zillal Hossain, was fined and sentenced to two months of rigorous imprisonment if the fine is not paid. The main owner, Abdul Mannan, who is Zillal’s brother, remains absconding.
According to the mobile court, the company had taken an order to sell 50 cartons of ghee. Acting on information from the National Security Intelligence, the Safe Food Authority assisted in the raid. Each seized carton contained twelve 900-gram jars of fake ghee, which will be destroyed. Zillal admitted that they used soybean oil, dalda, and ghee flavoring to produce the counterfeit product, which was sold for Tk 1,400 per jar.
Food inspector Sumadhu Chakraborty said the company had approval to produce margarine ghee but was illegally manufacturing fake ghee under unsanitary conditions, posing health risks to consumers.
