Counterfeit cellphone parts seized

Local customs at the Urumchi international airport recently seized more than 700 mobile phone shells and parts with counterfeited trademarks including Nokia, Apple and Samsung that a Russian traveler bought at a local wholesale market and planned to take back to Moscow. In the past three years, Urumchi airport customs uncovered some 100 shipments of counterfeits and seized about 50,000 fake items with a combined potential sales value of more than 2 million yuan ($325,600).
