Eel restaurant owner arrested for mislabeling fish as Aichi produce
Original: ウナギ
Police in Japan have arrested the male owner of an eel restaurant on suspicion of falsely labeling the origin of his fish. Menus and online listings claimed the eel came from Isshiki town in Aichi Prefecture, a leading eel-producing area, and from the Mikawa region, but it is suspected the eel was actually imported from China.
Why now: The arrest of a well-known food business over origin fraud is drawing attention amid ongoing concerns about mislabeled eel imports in Japan.
