The official food tasters

NEW DELHI: Two policemen are working as official food tasters to protect the Indian and Pakistani cricket teams ahead of the semifinal clash, a national English daily reported on Tuesday.

Assistant sub-inspector Rakesh Rasella and sub-inspector Ramphal, have been eating three lavish meals a day at the luxury Taj Hotel in Chandigarh to check for poisoning or other hygiene problems.

“I have tasted more than 18 different dishes before they were consumed by cricketers and I hadn't eaten many of them ever (before),” Rasella said ahead of Wednesday's match. Security is on high alert ahead of the game. — AFP
