Liverpool kashrut crisis deepens as deli turns down opportunity to regain kosher licence

July 23, 2019 from the The JC:

"Rosemans, which had its kashrut licence rescinded after being found to have regularly ordered non-kosher meat, has opted to run an unlicensed business."

"The deli at the centre of Liverpool's kashrut crisis has turned down options which would have allowed it to regain rabbinical certification, according to the local kashrut authority."

"In a notice made public this afternoon, Liverpool Kashrut Commission reported that “following detailed guidance in conjunction with the Chief Rabbi and Dayan Gelley, head of London Beth Din, the LKC put forward several options to the owners of Rosemans Delicatessen to enable them to obtain a kashrut licence."

"'They have decided not to adopt any of those options and to run Rosemans as an unlicensed business. We are therefore required to advise the community that Rosemans is no longer under the supervision of LKC.'"

Owner of Liverpool deli accused of selling nonkosher meat found dead

June 20, 2019 from the Jewish Telegraphic Agency:

Robert Kaye, the owner of Roseman’s Delicatessen, was found dead in Manchester, England days after his store was accused of selling nonkosher meat and poultry in the main outlet for kosher food in Liverpool, England.

Liverpool’s main kosher deli caught selling non-kosher meat

June 18, 2019 from the Jewish News:

"Liverpool’s Jewish community has been rocked by the news that the city’s main kosher food outlet has been selling non-kosher meat and poultry."

"In a letter to residents Rabbi Natan Fagleman of the Liverpool Kashrut Commission, which incorporates the Liverpool Shechita Board, outlined how 'serious breaches of kashrut have taken place at Roseman’s Delicatessen'. "

"Jewish residents were urged not to use “all utensils that have ever been used to cook meat/poultry bought at Roseman’s” and that “all food bought under the LKC licence should be discarded,” with the exception of chickens with a Manchester Beth Din label and pre-packed sealed meat products from other suppliers. "

"'From Tuesday morning Roseman's will only be licensed to sell pre-packed with an existing reliable Hechsher (certification)… No fresh products will be produced at Roseman’s. We believe that in this way the community will have access to fresh meant and a retail kosher outlet which is crucial to its survival.'"
