P89 Million Worth of Lacoste Goods Seized in Binondo The NBI-ISOD received information from Bengzon Negre Untalan Intellectual Property Attorneys (BNU), the counsel and attorney-in-fact of Lacoste S.A. in the Philippines. BNU had hired Dydimus, a market research company, to conduct the initial investigation on illegal activities of the raided locations. After receiving a tip-off from BNU, NBI-ISOD put the establishments under surveillance to confirm the information received. Test buys were also carried out in order to verify the initial investigations and to support the NBI’s applications for search warrants against the stores. Upon acquiring search warrants from the Manila Regional Trial Court, the NBI-ISOD searched the establishments and confiscated the counterfeit goods. The owners of the stalls and establishments raided would be charged for the violation of R.A. 8293 or the Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines.
