A Dhaka Safe Food Court has issued arrest warrants against top officials of Nestlé Bangladesh and Meghna Group of Industries over allegations of producing and marketing substandard and harmful food products. The cases, filed by a food inspector from Dhaka South City Corporation, cite laboratory tests showing excessive acidity and low milk solids in Nestlé’s KitKat wafers, and low sucrose levels with traces of sulfur dioxide in Meghna Sugar Refinery’s sugar. The court found the acidity and chemical presence to indicate spoilage and artificial whitening. Nestlé Bangladesh denied wrongdoing, stating that KitKat is imported from Dubai and India and not subject to local BSTI standards. Meghna Group did not comment on the allegations. The court scheduled the next hearing for December 15. The issue has sparked consumer outrage, with many questioning the quality control of multinational brands operating in Bangladesh.
