Counterfeit products worth Dh75m seized
The largest of its kind haul in Dubai unearths half-a-million pieces of fake printers and ink cartridges. The Commercial Compliance and Consumer Protection (CCCP) sector in the Department of Economic Development (DED), Dubai, has confiscated pirated goods worth Dh75 million, the largest seizure of its kind in Dubai.
The department raided a warehouse in the emirate and seized more than half-a-million pieces of duplicate printers and ink cartridges. The raid was a part of DED’s ongoing efforts to protect intellectual property and trademark owners as well as to enhance Dubai’s reputation as a business hub locally and globally.
