Hyderabad: The Hyderabad Commissioner’s Task Force, Central Zone team, and Abids police raided shops at Jagadish Market. They targeted stores selling fake Apple accessories and arrested four individuals. Authorities seized accessories valued at Rs one crore.
The sellers misled customers by using Apple logos and packaging, violating the Copy Right Act. They claimed these fake items were genuine, making illegal profits.
Among those arrested are Vikram Singh, owner of Shree Mataji Mobiles; Suresh Kumar Rajpurohit from R G Mobiles; Natharam Choudary of Rajaram Mobiles; and Mohammad Sarfaraz from Sapna Mobiles. These businessmen knowingly bought counterfeit Apple accessories from agents and repackaged them to deceive buyers.
