Customs officers seize record shipment of counterfeit merchandise

Customs officers have confiscated what is probably the largest ever consignment of counterfeited goods in a warehouse in the south of Prague. A spokesman said the customs officers discovered hundreds of thousands of fake shoes of major brands worth hundreds of millions of crowns piled up to a height of six metres in the 640-square-metre warehouse. He added a Vietnamese citizen had been detained on Sunday in connection with the raid.
