Nine questioned over counterfitting allegations

Nine people were being questioned tonight after police smashed a counterfeiting racket at a street market in the North.

Fake DVDs, CDs, cigarettes and cash were all seized during planned searches in Greysteel, Co Derry, this morning.

A number of vehicles were also taken in the raid, carried out by police from Limavady and organised crime unit officers.

They arrested seven men, one woman and a female juvenile during the operation.

With investigations continuing tonight, police were unable to disclose the exact value of the seizures made.
