His wife, mother and sister-in-law were arrested yesterday with about 40 kilos of meat, suspected to be beef.

The police said they had raided a house after a tip off that a cow had been slaughtered and found the women packaging the meat.

A veterinarian's report said the meat was beef and its samples were sent to forensic experts for further confirmation, police said.
