CCB busts counterfeiting ring in Bengaluru, seizes fake products worth ₹95 lakh
Bengaluru: The Central Crime Branch (CCB) has apprehended a gang engaged in the clandestine manufacturing and distribution of counterfeit products bearing the names of prominent brands. The company, spanning five years, targeted everyday consumer goods.
The arrested individuals, Shiv Patil, Daulat Singh, and Shubham, were apprehended following a thorough investigation after complaints from companies such as Hindustan Unilever Limited and Reckitt Benckiser India Limited. The CCB's intervention led to the dismantling of the illicit network.
During a raid on a godown in Wilson Garden and factories in Rampur and Bidarahalli near Avalahalli, authorities seized a lot of counterfeit items including Surf Excel, Vim Liquid, Lifebuoy Hand Wash, Rin, Wheel Detergent Powder, Red Label Tea Powder, Lyzal, and Harpic. The total value of the confiscated goods amounts to ₹95 lakh.
Originating from North India, the arrested suspects had established themselves in Bengaluru several years ago. Allegedly mentored by a notorious figure in counterfeit trade, Mahesh Gandhi, they assimilated the trade's intricacies before branching out to create their own organised network. Shiv Patil specialised in manufacturing the counterfeit goods, while Daulat Singh oversaw their distribution, a venture they diligently pursued for half a decade.
A case has been registered at the Wilson Garden Police Station.
