Mars and Snickers Bars Recalled Due to Extortion Scheme

(New South Wales, Australia) Threatening letters were sent Masterfoods, maker of Mars and Snickers bars, indicating that its candy bars had been tampered with. As a result, the company recalled all Mars and Snickers bars from vending machines and candy stores throughout New South Wales. The current plan is to destroy the candy.

Presently they don't know how the bars were tampered with or with what substance yet they are preparing to destroy the whole lot. Frankly, it would seem prudent to investigate and apprehend the culprit in this scheme before they destroy the product which, by the way, is also evidence.
