A Filipina domestic helper arrested in Central for selling a fake t-shirt, was jailed for six weeks after she pleaded guilty to three offenses at the start of her trial Friday (Aug. 23) at Eastern Court.
The trial was set last June 24 after Bianca Inocencio, 36
years old, pleaded not guilty, to selling a t-shirt with a fake label, possession
of 26 t-shirts with fake brand labels, and breach of her condition of stay for
doing business while working as a domestic helper.

Deputy Magistrate Paul Yip had actually sentenced Inocencio to
six weeks for each of the charges, but made the jail terms run at the same
time.
Inocencio was
arrested by officers from the Customs and Excise Department on Jan. 14 on the
pavement near Prince’s Bldg. and near MTR Exit K for allegedly selling a
t-shirt with a forged Adidas trademark, in violation of the Trade Description
Ordinance.

She was also charged with possession of goods with forged
trademarks, namely 19 T-shirts with the Adidas mark, 15 Nike and two Puma.
When the officers found out during the investigation that
she was a domestic helper, they also charged her with violation of the
Immigration Ordinance and Immigration Regulations.
