Police say they have 'cut off the head of the snake' after massive fake goods bust

A police raid on a huge warehouse has led to the seizure of £1.2 million worth of fake goods.

Officers raided the premises on Wednesday, May 3, after receiving a tip-off about the massive counterfeit operation. The sting was part of Greater Manchester Police's Operation Vulcan action plan to eradicate the selling of fake goods in the area, reports Manchester Evening News.
