China Arrests 103 Accused of Making Counterfeit German Adhesive
Police in Shanghai have arrested 103 suspects for alleged involvement in counterfeiting German adhesive brand Loctite,
the official Xinhua news agency reported on Wednesday, as China seeks to increase punishment of violations over intellectual property rights.
The police seized more than 470,000 fake Loctite adhesive products and labels, worth more than 50 million yuan ($7.1 million), in a raid carried out on Dec. 12, according to Xinhua.
The Loctite brand is owned by Germany’s Henkel AG.
