In a crackdown on selling of fake items in Ahmedabad, Maninagar police have raided more than six shops selling fake Apple accessories. As a result, six people have been arrested, and stock worth ₹12 lakh has been seized.

A resident of Maninagar, Vishalsinh Jadeja, had informed the police about the illegal trade, prompting the raids. The police conducted operations at shops located at Krishnagar Cross Roads, Keshav Kunj Complex (DM Accessories), Murlidhar Store in Hansraj Complex, Shivam Communications, Unique Accessories, Cover House, and Sakshi Mobile in Madhuram Building. 

Fake Apple accessories, including mobile covers, adapters, AirPods, chargers, and cables, were seized, amounting to a total value of ₹12 lakh.

A case has been registered under the Copyright Act against Bhagirath Purohit, Nakul Purohit, Vishal Jain, Raj Purohit, Govindsinh Rajput, and Suresh Prajapati.

During the preliminary investigation, it was found that these sellers were deceiving customers by selling fake Apple accessories as genuine products.
