Following a Surelock investigation……

THREE people have faced a judge accused of selling a huge haul of fake goods – including One Direction clothing.

Kenneth Colley, aged 42, Jason Ross, aged 45 and Anna Strzelecka, aged 39, appeared at Plymouth Crown Court jointly charges with selling clothing bearing trademarked images between July 1 2009 and July 12, 2012.

Prosecutors claim the operation made more than £150,000.

They are further accused of concealing the proceeds of criminal conduct, namely cash, between the same dates.

Colley and Strzelecka are also charged with possessing a printing unit – namely a Coolemaster computer tower and printers – specifically designed to label clothing with a registered trade mark

The pair also allegedly created clothing with a registered trade mark and possessed clothing bearing a false trade mark with a view to selling the goods.

Colley, of Risdon Avenue, Prince Rock; Strzelecka of nearby Embankment Road, and Ross, of Penmere Drive, Newquay did not enter pleas to any of the charges.

Prosecutors have previously estimated the profits from the operation were between £150,000 and £180,000.

Clothes bearing false trademarks such as One Direction and Boy London were allegedly sold on Ebay.

Judge Paul Darlow set down a trial to last four or five days starting May 9 next year.

The trio were released on unconditional bail until an interim hearing on February 22 when they will be expected to enter pleas.
