Bombay High Court Quashes Criminal Case Against Nestle India For Allegedly Making Maggi With 'Substandard Materials'

Live Law  

The Nagpur bench of the Bombay High Court recently quashed a criminal case lodged against Nestle India for using "substandard" materials for producing "Maggi" and breaching the provisions of the Food Safety Standards Act. Single-judge Justice Urmila Joshi-Phalke noted that the Food Inspector at Nagpur sent the samples of Maggi seized on April 30, 2015, to a Referral Food Laboratory in Ghaziabad in Uttar Pradesh despite the same not being accredited by the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories. The judge noted that in the instant case, an initial analysis report was submitted by the State Public Health Laboratory in Pune, concluding that the product conformed with the safety standards as mandated under the FSS Act and the Rules and Regulations, therein. The food inspector has not assigned any reason as to his dissatisfaction about the said analysis and forwarded the said samples to the Referral Food Laboratory, Ghaziabad in Uttar Pradesh and relied upon the report which is not accredited and recognized laboratory as provided under the Act and, therefore, no reliance can be placed on the said results," the court opined.
