The Nugegoda Magistrate’s Court recently imposed a fine of Rs. 75,000 against Niromi Trade Centre Ltd. for selling counterfeit “TOMMY HILFIGER” apparel and further issued an order to destroy such goods. The said Order by the Court was a result of a complaint filed by TOMMY HILFIGER through their local representative, Sudath Perera Associates.
