Bandra, 16th August 2023: A profoundly disturbing incident has come to light, revealing a disconcerting discovery of rat meat within purported chicken and mutton preparations at a well-regarded restaurant in Bandra.

The case has been filed against the restaurant’s manager, Vivian Albert Shiquera, aged 40, the restaurant’s chef, and the chicken supplier.

According to police, the unsettling episode transpired on August 13, when Anurag Singh, aged 40, accompanied by his friend Amin Khan, visited the restaurant located in Pali Naka, Bandra West, for a dinner outing. Their order included a chicken and mutton thali, complete with roti. It was during their meal that they stumbled upon an unusually divergent piece of meat concealed within the dish.
