Police Bust Counterfeiting Clothing Factory in Moscow Region
Police in the Moscow region have busted an illegal production center where more than 2,500 immigrants from Southeast Asia had been employed making clothes with fake labels of well-known foreign brands. The sweatshop in the suburban town of Lvanteyevka was based at a former textile factory where the immigrants, who are thought to be in the country illegally, lived in unsanitary conditions, the Interior Ministry said on its website Thursday. The clothes were made “in violation of the requirements for the safety of life and health of Russian consumers,” and then sold throughout Moscow, the ministry said. Police have confiscated 70 tons of counterfeit clothing made by 2,000 sewing machines at the factory.
