Authorities said on Tuesday that they had seized thousands of tonnes of meat worth about HK$2 billion from an unlicensed cold store near Lok Ma Chau.

Officers from the police and the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department swooped on a container yard on Mai Po Lung Road.

They said they discovered about 200 refrigerated containers, packed with meat including pork, beef and lamb.

Detective chief inspector Lin Kin-tak said the meat weighed more than 5,600 tonnes.

He said they were investigating where the meat came from and whether it was destined to be smuggled elsewhere.

A 34-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of operating an unlicensed cold store.
