La Cala street vendors caught with fakes

TWO African street vendors have been charged for selling fake goods.

Plain-clothes policemen patrolling the La Cala boulevard stopped the two men, who both had previous records for selling fake items, and confiscated their goods.

The two men, who were selling handbags, sunglasses and items of clothing copied from top-name brands including Ray-Ban, Gucci, Dolce&Gabbana, Emporio Armani, Calvin Klein and Lacoste, both claimed they had bought the goods from a nearby warehouse.
