EQUITY ALERT: Rosen Law Firm Announces Investigation of Securities Claims Against BRF S.A. - BRFS

Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, announces it is investigating potential securities claims on behalf of shareholders of BRF S.A. (NYSE:BRFS) resulting from allegations that BRF may have issued materially misleading business information to the investing public.

On March 17, 2017, news outlets reported that Brazilian federal police raided the offices of BRF and dozens of other meatpackers following a two-year investigation into alleged bribery of regulators to subvert inspections of their plants. The probe, known as “Operation Weak Flesh,” had uncovered about 40 cases of meatpackers who had bribed inspectors and politicians to overlook unsanitary practices such as processing rotten meat and running plants with traces of salmonella. Police arrested three BRF employees, as well as 20 public officials. On this news, shares of BRF fell sharply during intraday trading on March 17, 2017.

Rosen Law Firm is preparing a class action lawsuit to recover losses suffered by BRF investors.
