POLICE have launched an investigation into an alleged food tampering scheme, in which labels of expired food items are being replaced and sold by some city businesses.
Reports are that food and drug authorities are in possession of samples of those items, in addition to invoices.

The Guyana Chronicle understands that authorities are working closely with police to find the persons responsible.
The Government of Guyana views this as a serious matter that can have severe consequences for the health and safety of consumers. The public is, therefore, being urged to be vigilant in their purchase of food items.
