The Ministry of Maritimes Affairs and Fisheries (MOMAF) announced Sunday
that the Busan Quality Control Office for marine products had found a
screw bolt inside a frozen croaker imported from China, one week after the
discovery of lead in scabbard fish, also from China. The ministry
confirmed the croaker contained a bolt, 3cm in length, and the imported
lot, weighing some 23 tons, had been returned.
Since the two countries signed 'The Agreement of Safety Control on Exports
and Imports of Marine Products between South Korea and China' in July,
lead fishing sinkers have been found in frozen silver pomfret and croaker,
however, the ministry said that it is the first time a bolt has been found.
MOMAF said that finding a screw bolt inside a croaker is a shocking
incident, as it seems an intentional act, adding that it had notified
Chinese authorities and demanded preventive measures be taken.
