He also said that they'll be checking where it was to be dispatched.

Mkhwanazi and Premier Thami Ntuli yesterday evening led a team that discovered at least two warehouses in the south of Durban near Bluff storing expired food items, counterfeit alcohol and prescription medication.

In the second warehouse in the area, police also found other counterfeit goods.

Mkhwanazi says a thorough probe will assist them in obtaining all the information.

“It’s part of an investigation about the goods coming into this country and where they will eventually be. At least we have an idea but what we have to investigate further, we need brand owners to give us statements that these goods indeed are not theirs so that it becomes part of the case docket. So, we need to know who’s bringing it in – where do they send it to; and who they sell it to and the eventual final destination.”
