A mobile court aided by Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) yesterday busted three unauthorised vermicelli factories in the city's Kamrangirchar and Chawkbazar and fined the factory owners a total of Tk 1.65 lakh.
Rab Executive Magistrate Anwar Pasha said they raided Vai Vai Semai Factory at Kamrangirchar around 11:30am and found a huge amount of vermicelli packets.
"Din Islam and Samsul Alam, the owners of the factory, were producing semai (vermicelli) and using labels of renowned companies in the packaging," he said.
The labels had "made in Noakhali" printed on them. The court fined them Tk 1.5 lakh, he added.
The court later conducted drives at Chawkbazar and fined Mohammad Lal Miah, owner of one vermicelli factory, Tk 10,000 and another factory owner, Chand Miah, Tk 5,000, both for producing vermicelli in unhygienic environment.
