DCC 77/1991

This case was taken against a number of traders who had been selling a counterfeited trademarked product. The traders had not been aware the product was counterfeit which lead to the question of whether there could be an order to destroy the product. Under Sharia Law harm must be rectified. The parties should go back to the position they had been in before. That meant the products which had been attached could be destroyed but not other Red Label tea products as it was not possible to confirm if they were counterfeit or not.
