No plea was taken from Zolaida Gogo, 34, and Muhammad
Shuaib, 46, saleslady and owner, respectively, of the electronics shop located
on the third floor of the building’s shopping arcade.
The defendants were charged by the Customs and Excise
Department of one count each “selling goods to which a forged trademark was
applied” and “possession for sale or for any purpose of trade or manufacture
goods to which a false trademark was applied.”
Magistrate Bina Chainrai adjourned the hearing until Jun 24 and
extended the bail of the two defendants.
The first charge said Customs said Gogo and Muhammad sold
one piece of a 32 gigabyte micro SD card bearing a forged “Sandisk” trademark
on Jun 6 last year.
Shortly after the purchase, Customs officers searched the
shop and confiscated 44 pieces of 8GB micro SD cards, 17 pieces of 16GB micro
cards , 25 pieces of 32GB micro SD cards, 7 pieces of 64 GB micro SD cards and
32 pieces of 128GB micro SD cards, all allegedly bearing a forged “Sandisk” trademark.
