An inspector from the municipality said that among other violations which have been registered against the supermarket are the absence of health certificates for workers, expired food, and non-compliance with GCC specifications related to food labels.
Some food items were not displayed with space of over 30cm from the ground, he added.
The director of the municipality issued a decision, permanently closing down the supermarket and referred the case to authorities to complete legal procedures.
