China Denies “ Marinating Dead Bodies ” And Selling Them As Meat In Africa . ( Photos )

The Republic of China has been forced to deny claims
that it is marinating dead bodies, canning them and
selling them as a meat product in Africa, after a bizarre
Facebook hoax went viral.
Rumours of the alleged trade in human meat first began
circulating on social media thanks to a series of
photographs of what appeared to be skinned people in a
meat factory.

Zambian press was accused of encouraging the
rumours, after publishing articles that quoted alleged
sources from inside the Chinese meat factories.
According to the alleged sources, the idea to use human
meat came when China ran out of space to dispose of
its dead.
Others claimed Beijing preferred to save its ‘ good meat ‘
for richer, more powerful countries.
But China’s ambassador to Zambia has issued a
furious denial of the allegations.

Today a local tabloid newspaper is openly
spreading a rumour, claiming that the
Chinese use human meat to make corned
beef and sell it to Africa,’ said Yang Youming,
according to China’s Xinhua news agency.
‘This is completely a malicious slandering
and vilification which is absolutely
unacceptable to us. We hereby express our
utmost anger and the strongest
condemnation over such an act.’
He reportedly claimed that the rumours were being
circulated by ‘ people with ulterior motives were attempting
to destroy the long-standing partnership between Zambia
and China ’.
