    Hong Kong stops sale of Armenian bottled water brand after US ban


    HONG KONG (XFN-ASIA) - Hong Kong's government has told shops to stop
    selling an Armenian brand of bottled water US authorities said is
    contaminated with arsenic.

    The health department said US studies have found Jermuk products
    contain up to 60 times the international standard for the poisonous
    metal.

    All Jermuk products, including still and carbonated water, came under
    the Hong Kong order, issued after the US Food and Drug Administration
    slapped a similar ban on the brand.
