Proactive policing on the part of Metro police officers resulted in 12 big parcels of knock-off big-name brands being discovered and subsequently seized in the early hours of this morning.
“Acting on a tip-off, officers and clothing brand representatives made the discovery of the sneakers, made up of well-known brands such as Nike, Adidas, and Converse with a street value of approximately R1 million being off-loaded from a taxi at the corner of Delvers and Reaana Moosa streets in the Joburg CBD,” Metro police spokesperson, Wayne Minnaar said.
