Zhenzhen police raided a fake iPhone workshop in Huaqiangbei taking twenty eight people into custody, according to Shenzhen Daily.
Seven people were arrested by police and more than 1,000 iPhones and 6,000 phone batteries were confiscated.
Apple officials expressed their appreciation for the officers’ “commendable” efforts.
In early January, police were notified that Chuanglida Communication Tech Co was operating the illegal workshop in the Modern World Window Mansion. Inside there was a clear division of work including accessory purchase, assembly and sales. During the inspection retailers were seen queuing to pick up merchandise.
Each counterfeit iPhone sells for 500 yuan (US$74) in Huaqiangbei, significantly cheaper than 5,000 yuan for the genuine product.
