Operatives of the Intellectual Property Rights Division of the National Bureau of Investigation -Manila raided 33 stalls and seized counterfeit items worth about P200 million.John Ignacio, team leader of IPRD-NBI Manila, said the series of raids stemmed from a complaint from LV, which complained that fake products using its brand were being sold in various stores in Cebu.He said the discovery of fake LV items being sold in Cebu came during a market survey conducted by the company.
After receiving the complaint, a surveillance and test buy were made until the raid was conducted, Ignacio said.
