Guangzhou, August 26 - Police in Shenzhen, a booming southern city that abuts1 Hong Kong, have seized more than 20,000 items of fake brand-name products, a spokesman with the city administration for industry and commerce said.

 

The Shenzhen industry and commerce bureau received tips that fakes were being sold in the Jueshi Building, an office building in Luohuo district of Shenzhen, the spokesman said.

 

The bureau later joined hands with local police and raided the building on Wednesday. They found more than 20,000 items of fake suitcases, haute couture, shoes, wristwatches and golf gears in several shops and two warehouses2 on the 23rd floor of the building.

 

The products, pirated big-name brands like LV, Nike, Gucci and Montblanc, are estimated to be worth 20 million yuan (about 2.6 million U.S. dollars), the spokesman said.

 

Most of the fakes were sold to foreign visitors and tourists from Hong Kong and Macao, who were brought in by tourist guides. Some of the fakes were also wholesaled3 to another market in the same district.

 

Local police detained five dealers4 on the scene, and are looking into the sources of the fakes.
