“According to the complaint, the spares were not manufactured by the automobile companies. They were of inferior quality because of which their goodwill was being damaged and end users were also getting duped. Ali used to supply these spares to several shops and garages in Rajarhat,” said the officer.

The cops have seized nearly 100 packets of fake spare parts.
