জয়া আহসানসহ অন্যদের রিট: ঘোড়ার মাংস বেচাকেনার অভিযোগ তদন্ত করে প্রতিবেদন দিতে নির্দেশ

The High Court has ordered an investigation into allegations of illegal horse slaughter and meat trading in Gazipur's Hyderabad area. The court directed the relevant ministries to submit a report on the matter within 90 days, along with a coordinated action plan to curb the illicit trade. This directive follows a writ petition filed by actress Jaya Ahsan and others, who highlighted the discovery of numerous sick and slaughtered horses, along with a significant quantity of meat being sold deceptively as beef. Despite previous actions, the illegal trade persisted, and seized horses were reportedly auctioned off.

This case highlights the critical need for effective regulation and enforcement to prevent animal cruelty and protect public health from the dangers of unregulated meat sales.
