Suspected counterfeit goods worth £20,000 seized by police in Sutton
Police have seized suspected counterfeit clothing worth around £20,000 in Sutton.
Officers broke down a door to get into a house in Church Avenue on Wednesday morning.
Once inside they discovered deal bags of cannabis and what are thought to be fake designer goods.
The seized items included boxes and bags full of clothing, luggage, sunglasses and fragrances.
A 29-year-old woman and a 30-year-old man have been arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply cannabis and selling counterfeit goods.
Sergeant Paul Peatfield, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “Seizing suspected counterfeit goods is a great result.
“Although they may seem like an innocent way to bag a bargain, fake products haven’t been through the usual safety tests and could also be funding other types of crime – not to mention leaving genuine businesses out of pocket.
“We will continue to work tirelessly to tackle the issues which really matter to people.”
