The incident occurred last Monday at 5:25 PM, when Mossos d'Esquadra officers conducted a checkpoint on the AP-7 highway. During the inspection of a vehicle, they noticed a considerable amount of cargo in the rear and tinted windows.
Inside the vehicle, occupied by the two individuals now arrested, seven large sacks were found containing numerous sports apparel items, primarily football jerseys. The occupants could not provide proof of origin or authenticity for the items.
The detainees, aged 34 and 49, were taken to police facilities. After being questioned, they were released pending a summons from the judicial authority. They are accused of an industrial property offense for the alleged counterfeiting of original product distinctive signs.
