ISRAEL-HAMAS CONFLICT
THE decision by the Muslim Judicial Council Halaal Trust (MJCHT) to decline any certification of goods and services emanating from Israel has been met with mixed reaction.
The trust made the decision amid the violent conflict in the Middle-East between Israel and Palestine.
In a statement, the MJCHT, said the organisation was committed to ethical business practices in line with international law and human rights.
“As part of this commitment, the MJCHT declines the certification of any goods or services emanating from Israel. The MJCHT, furthermore, declines the certification of any Israeli-based companies or their directly controlled foreign subsidiaries.”
