A recent court case, Republic v Anti Counterfeit Agency and Caroline Mangala t/a Hair Works Salon (20 November 2019), involved an application to quash a seizure of allegedly counterfeit beauty products. Kenya is one of the few countries in Africa to have specific anti-counterfeiting legislation, the Anti-Counterfeit Act. One thing this legislation does is create a dedicated enforcement body known as the Anti-Counterfeit Authority (formerly the Anti-Counterfeit Agency), and it was this body that conducted the seizure. The person from whom the goods were seized claimed that the raid had been unfair and illegal.
