However, the company did not follow the norms prescribed by TSPCB to treat the solid waste generated in the processing of frozen buffalo meat and committed offences under Section 24 and 43 of the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974, said ED in a statement.

Accused of dumping hazardous waste, Environmental violations

The Anti Money Laundering Investigation Agency's probe revealed that M/s Al Kabeer Exports Private Limited did not follow the statutory rule for the treatment of hazardous solid meat waste generated on their premises. Instead, the company disposed off the hazardous waste in an open area, which resulted in the pollution of surface and ground water in the surrounding areas. 

Further agency’s investigation revealed that by committing the said scheduled offence, the company generated Proceeds of Crime amounting to Rs. 61 lakh. The said amount, instead of being used for the treatment of hazardous waste, was used by M/s Al Kabeer Exports Private Limited and its directors for other purposes.
