Gardaí seize bogus DVDs

GARDAÍ have seized more than 2,000 DVDs from premises in a Cork town as part of a probe into the multi-million euro counterfeit and piracy racket.

Valued at an estimated €50,000, it is one of the single largest such seizures in the region for several years.

The DVDs – including some yet-to-be-released movie titles and over 100 pornographic titles – were seized in two separate raids on premises in Macroom at around 5pm on Monday.
