They also saw fake labels and bottles that looked like real brands, making it hard for people to spot the difference.
Several workers at the factory were arrested during the raid. They were working in unsafe conditions, making wine that could harm people’s health. The task force is now looking for the person who runs the factory, who might be part of a bigger group making fake products.
