The UK Food Standards Agency reports that its National Food Crime Unit, working with the Metropolitan Police and other partners, has seized more than 67,000 bottles of counterfeit or misrepresented wine and Prosecco, worth about £500,000, from three warehouses in North London and Essex. The FSA says a 61 year old man was arrested on 3 March on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud and later released under investigation, with enquiries still continuing, making this one of the biggest fresh food fraud stories affecting the wine trade today.
