The Selangor Islamic Religious Department (JAIS) has confirmed that the 'ayam tebuk' or chicken not slaughtered based on the Halal method sold at a supermarket in Bukit Changgang, Banting, near here does not have valid halal certification.
Its director, Datuk Mohd Shahzihan Ahmad said the matter was determined when the department’s Halal Enforcement Section along with the Kuala Langat Municipal Council (MPKL) inspected the premises yesterday, after the issue went viral on social media.
"The premises was found not to possess valid Malaysian Halal Certification (SPHM). The premises was also found to be abusing the Malaysian Halal logo by displaying the logo without having the SPHM issued by the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (Jakim).
