"The storerooms were used to keep the counterfeit goods.”

He says the goods include footwear, clothes and watches of well-known brands.

"It is essential that we bring back the rule of law in our ciy and take it back from the criminal elements. We are committed to ensuring that we stop the rot in our inner city and make it a prosperous and inclusive place for our people to live work and play," Sindane adds.
