01 · THE DISPATCH

Lod police seized counterfeit luxury goods valued at approximately NIS 1 million in a raid on a local business, according to police. The haul included fake luxury watches and hundreds of branded clothing items suspected of infringing intellectual property rights. The business owner was taken for questioning, and all merchandise was confiscated for further handling.

The operation follows a similar police raid in Jerusalem last month, as The Zioneer reported on June 17, when officers seized counterfeit goods worth NIS 250,000 from a store at the Cinema City complex. In the earlier case, the business operator also faces civil claims from brand owners estimated at NIS 900,000.
