Counterfeit cigarette sellers arrested
THOUSANDS of counterfeit and non-duty-paid cigarettes were recovered after three Worcester stores were raided. Three people were arrested following the joint initiative between Worcestershire Regulatory Services and Worcester Safer Neighbourhood Teams on Tuesday, February 25. West Mercia Police and Trading Standards Officers swooped on the premises with a sniffer dog after receiving information that a number of stores were selling suspected counterfeit and non-duty paid cigarettes. PC Alex Denny, from Worcester Cathedral‘s Safer Neighbourhood Team, said the sale of counterfeit cigarettes was a risk to the health of the public and to unsuspecting traders.
