Authorities seized 1,286 kg of meat suspected to be illegal from a parcel at Hazrat Nizamuddin railway yard and have directed forensic lab analysis.
Delhi police officials intercepted a railway parcel at the Hazrat Nizamuddin yard and recovered approximately 1,286 kilograms of meat that is believed to be contraband. The seizure was carried out after routine checks raised suspicions about the contents of the consignment.
The material has been handed over to the city's Forensic Science Laboratory for detailed examination to determine its origin, composition and whether it violates any food safety or wildlife protection laws. Officials have not disclosed the type of meat or the intended destination of the parcel.
Investigators said the case is being treated as a serious offence, and further action will depend on the laboratory results. No arrests have been reported so far, and the railway authorities are cooperating with law‑enforcement agencies to trace the source of the shipment.
