The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has arrested three men and seized a large quantity of counterfeit goods and manufacturing machinery in a raid on an illegal facility in the SITE area in Karachi.
The facility was allegedly producing goods that infringed the registered copyright of Atlas Honda. An FIA spokesperson said the FIA Corporate Crime Circle Karachi carried out the operation in Metroville-III on the directions of FIA Karachi Zone Director Muntazir Mehdi.
The raid followed a complaint from Ghulam Murtaza, an authorised representative of Atlas Honda. He alleged that the company’s registered copyright and artistic work relating to its products had been infringed.
The team recovered a large quantity of allegedly infringing goods, along with the machinery and equipment used to make them.
The arrested suspects are Syed Asif Ali, son of Syed Achan Ali; Syed Anas Ali, son of Asif Ali; and Syed Asfand Ali, son of Syed Asif Ali. A case has been registered against them, and they have been shifted to the FIA Corporate Crime Circle Karachi.
