Anti-fraud operation of the Customs and Monopolies Agency which, in a store in Olbia, confiscated about a hundred toys that did not comply with the appropriate safety standards.

Specifically, 78 pieces including the famous “POP IT” (anti-stress for children made of colored soft plastic) were found to be non-compliant with safety standards and lacking the CE marking, and therefore subjected to administrative seizure.

For 38 articles bearing the non-compliant CE marking, including 20 plush toys depicting the characters of the famous TV series “Squid Games”, a report was made to the judicial authority for commercial fraud and for the use of products with non-compliant signs.

The operator is subject to a penalty ranging from a minimum of 1,500 to a maximum of 10,000 euros.

Further investigations are also underway for any violations of intellectual property rights.

The operation was carried out jointly with the Local Police.
