COIMBATORE: The Tirupur city police on Friday arrested three men for manufacturing face masks under a popular company’s brand name.
Ramraj Cotton, which is manufacturing three-layer face masks that bear the ‘RR’ trademark symbol, had lodged a complaint with central crime branch of Tirupur city police on Thursday after R S Seenu, a Tirupur-based ornament manufacturing unit owner, posted a message on his Facebook page announcing sale of masks made by the firm.
Police registered a case and arrested Seenu of SS Nagar extension, S Nermainathan of KVR Nagar and S Murugan of Moscow Nagar. Seenu manufactured the face mask and Nermainathan made the forged logo, police sources said. They seized 437 face masks and 1,532 fake trademark symbols from them.
