Federal prosecutors said they made the biggest-ever US seizure of fake designer handbags, shoes and other items — with an estimated retail value of more than $1 billion — and charged two people with trafficking in counterfeit goods.

Indictments were unsealed Wednesday in New York against Adama Sow, 38, and Abdulai Jallow, 48, who were accused of running the illegal operation out of a storage facility in Manhattan, prosecutors said in a statement.
