THE Marbella local police have sent 1,600 articles of knock-off brand name clothing, shoes, handbags and other items to the Casares rubbish and recycling plant for destruction. The material had been seized in police operations carried out his year against illegal vending along the town’s Paseo Marítimo and at Puerto Banús, said officials.
“This is only part of the total number of articles seized,” said public security councillor Javier Porcuna, noting that many other items remain in police storage because they are linked to ongoing cases and their destruction must be approved by a judge.
