◎魏國金
The number of dead pigs recovered in the last two weeks from rivers that supply water to Shanghai has risen to more than 16,000.
過去2週從供應上海用水的河流發現的死豬數，已增至超過1萬6000頭。
The government in China’s financial hub said Thursday that 10,570 carcasses have been pulled from its Huangpu river. That is in addition to 5,528 pigs plucked from upstream tributaries in the Jiaxing area of Zhejiang province.
這座中國金融中樞的政府週四表示，10570頭豬屍已從其黃浦江撈起。除此之外，從浙江省嘉興地區上游支流清理了5528頭豬。
Authorities give daily updates assuring the public that tests show Shanghai’s water is safe, but no official has given any full explanation about the massive dumping of pig carcasses.
當局每日提供最新情況，以向民眾確保，檢測顯示上海的用水安全無虞，但沒有官員對於大規模的豬屍傾倒提出任何充分解釋。
Hog farmers have told state media that the dumping of swine carcasses is rising because police have started cracking down on the illicit sale of pork products made from dead, diseased pigs.
豬農告訴國營媒體，豬屍的棄置正逐漸增多，因為警方開始打擊由病死豬製成的非法肉品販賣。
The Southern Weekly newspaper, citing court documents, said three men were sentenced to life prison in Jiaxing last November for procuring dead pigs to sell their meat. It says the men and their group purchased and slaughtered 77,000 dead pigs in a period of more than two years.
「南方週末」報引述法庭文件指出，去年11月3名嘉興男子因取得、販賣病死豬肉而被判處無期徒刑。報導指出，這些男子與其同夥，2年多來購買並屠宰7萬7000頭病死豬。
Local officials also told Southern Weekly that the city lacks enough facilities to properly dispose of dead pigs. Hog farming is a major business in Jiaxing.（AP）
