Manufacturers jailed for lethal baby milk formula

    Two mainland factory officials have been jailed for producing a baby formula so low in nutrition that it killed one baby and left others dangerously malnourished. The men were found to have knowingly produced the substandard formula marketed under the brand name Lezichun, which caused the death of a baby girl in the eastern province of Anhui and sickened others last year. The girl was one of more than 200 infants who suffered malnutrition after drinking phoney formula in Anhui, where investigators found the sale of counterfeit milk powder was widespread. At least 12 babies died from drinking this and other brands of fake formulas.
