Blatant! 60 Thousand Pairs Of Shoes Actually Used 5 International Brands.

A few days ago, the Nanjing customs of Jiangsu province and the Red Cross Society of Jiangsu Province jointly held a ceremony to hand over the infringing goods according to law in Suzhou.

The infringing goods were cracked by the customs of Taicang for more than a year.

This is the largest case of intellectual property infringement that Nanjing customs has seized so far. It has a large number of cases, and it infringes on 5 internationally renowned brands.

The fox could not escape from the hunter's eyes. At 17:20 on July 12, 2006, there was still 10 minutes from the commuting time. The customs declarant personnel in the customs declaration Hall of Taicang customs had gone through the formalities.

"There is still one vote for the goods. The main line is urgent. Please send them to your ship as soon as possible. The ship will leave soon."

Suddenly, a customs officer rushed into the customs declaration hall with a breath of evidence and shouted in a hurry.

"It looks like we have to work overtime."

A customs officer said he took over the declaration documents, and looked at the operating units on the list as the Yongan economic and Trade Co., Ltd. of Suifenhe, Heilongjiang, and declared the name of the leather shoes made of artificial leather. The number of declarations was 67248 pairs, the declared value was $82675.42, and the territory's territory was Zhejiang Yiwu, which was shipped to Ukraine.

"Why?

Why does Zhejiang's goods arrive in Europe? Why not export from Zhejiang port, but it has gone through a large circle, and exported from Taicang, which will increase the cost? "

The officer thought in mind that he received the document without any sign, and then reported to the section chief.

"Check!"

The chief of the inspection section issued the instructions neatly and neatly.

In the south of the Yangtze River in July, the weather remained very hot at five or six p.m., and 5 tall and long container stacked on the site.

Several customs officers opened one of the containers with strong force. The heat wave came from the box, which was full of boxes.

Open the outermost box containing 12 pairs of sneakers, the trade mark is "ASICS".

"It seems to be a brand shoe, but not very famous, will it infringe the exclusive right to use the trademark?

Open another one. "

The officer said, opening a box inside, full of "NIKE" brand shoes.

Then, open the other 4 boxes, which are all sneakers with ADIDAS, NIKE, PUMA and other internationally famous brand names.

"Please use the power of attorney to provide the exclusive right to use the trademark."

Customs officers in Taicang require supplementary declarations submitted by customs officers accompanying inspection.

Customs declaration personnel contact the business unit personnel, the other party said no, then hung up the phone.

"Thorough inspection!"

Taicang customs leaders have issued new inspection instructions.

After thorough inspection, the declared leather shoes are actually 65428 pairs of shoes (5494 cases).

Taicang customs promptly reported to the Suzhou customs and Nanjing customs and applied for contact with the obligee to decide whether to apply for intellectual property protection.

"We request the customs to retain the infringing goods according to law, and we are willing to bear the legal liabilities arising from the seizure of goods."

The rights of the 5 brands uniformly issued the application for detaining the goods.

In July 25th, the Nanjing Customs Department issued a notice of withholding the infringing goods.

On the same day, the Taicang customs informed the parties concerned and the obligee on the detention of the suspected infringing goods in accordance with the law, and filed a formal investigation.

"This is the largest case of intellectual property infringement that has been detected by Nanjing customs so far. It has a large number of cases, and it infringes 5 internationally renowned brands."

The leader of the customs and regulations Office of Nanjing introduced afterwards.

The customs put aside the fog of infringement from late July 2006 to mid August. Under the guidance of the customs and Regulations Department of Taicang, the Nanjing customs officers sent to Shanghai, Zhejiang Yiwu, Heilongjiang Suifenhe and other places to conduct field investigation and evidence collection.

After investigation and investigation by customs investigators, the truth of the case gradually emerged. A group of lawless elements directly manipulated the case of export infringement of trademark exclusive rights.

According to the survey, in April 2006, the gang of criminals had falsely registered Yongan economic and Trade Co., Ltd. in Suifenhe, Heilongjiang province. The contact information on the registration data was faked and could not be contacted.

The registered capital of the company is 500 thousand yuan, which covers import and export of goods, technology import and export, and the import and export business of all kinds of commodities and technologies through neighboring small businesses to neighboring countries and regions. The company's registered address is located in a commercial and residential building in Suifenhe.

When customs investigators arrived at the building, the room was locked and looked from the corridor to the room.

According to the surrounding residents, this room has been occupied for a long time.

At the beginning of July 2006, a group of lawless men purchased a number of fake sports shoes from the Yiwu small commodities market in Zhejiang, which were stored in an individual warehouse in Yiwu, and produced customs declaration materials such as contracts, invoices, etc., which were operated by Yongan economic and Trade Co., Ltd.

In July 11th, this group of criminals commissioned a freight forwarding company in Shanghai to be responsible for the pportation of the goods. The freight forwarder also commissioned a custom brokers company in Taicang to pport the goods from Yiwu to Taicang port for declaration to Taicang customs.

In July 12th, the declaration of goods was exposed, and it was exposed by customs officers.

Due to the fact that the infringement of the goods is basically clear, the parties involved in the case can not find out. According to the Announcement No. forty-eighth of the Customs General Administration in 2005, the Taicang customs has made a public announcement of the infringing goods according to law.

Recently, the Nanjing customs and the Jiangsu Red Cross jointly held the ceremony of pferring the infringing goods according to law in Suzhou.

According to the regulations, the Nanjing customs has pferred all the infringing goods collected by the Jiangsu Red Cross Society to the public welfare undertakings.
