According to numerous reports, the individuals were released as Scotland Yard named two of the men responsible for the death of seven people on London Bridge and Borough Market.

This is horrific, both for the animals suffering for these counterfeit clothes and the people unknowingly wearing them!

A number of arrests have been made in Rome and police also seized many counterfeit merino wool and silk products.

We can’t help but wonder what “other animals” the police could be talking about…
