The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Friday summoned a reply from Punjab Food Authority (PFA) on September 17 in a petition challenging private slaughter houses’ advertisements and offers, regarding ritual sacrifices on Eidul Adha.

The petitioner’s counsel said that private slaughter houses are utter unhygienic places and do not fulfill PFA’s requirements. He said that slaughter houses should not be allowed to perform Eid sacrifices.

The petitioner requested the court to ban private slaughter houses.

The LHC has summoned a reply from the PFA in the matter by September 17.

  1. It’s not such a bad idea.In western countries it is mandatory to conduct all animal sacrifices in government approved slaughter houses. This way one can keep there living space clean and hygiene.If you get reported slaughtering there is a heavy fine and even imprisonment if cruelty to animal is proven. You have the option of sacrificing your animal by a Muslim butcher who must be qualified and licenced. Yes there is one year diploma course in butchery.
