Soccer Pro Shop in Fairfax Investigated for Selling Counterfeit Sportswear

Virginia State Police are investigating the Soccer Pro Shop at 10342 Lee Highway in Fairfax, for possibly selling counterfeit athletic apparel, according to a FCPD search warrant affidavit.

Among the items seized in a recent search: a T-shirt press and handheld iron, hundreds of unprinted Nike jerseys, shin guards and hats.  

"All items from each of the undercover purchases were examined by an expert…who verified that all the items were indeed counterfeit goods," wrote the investigating officer in the search warrant affidavit. "Based upon this investigation it is clear the Soccer Pro Shop and their employees are engaged in the sale of counterfeit products to members of the public."

No one has yet been charged. The store manager told Patch that allegations against the store were unfounded, and would not comment further, except to say that the owner of shop, Danial Agahi, was on vacation and could not be reached. Agahi's lawyer did not return our phone calls.

If found guilty of selling counterfeit products, Agahi would face a civil action against any of the companies from which he allegedly profited. 

The police began investigating the store last month. After two visits and purchases totaling $371, an independent investigator from Blazer Investigations determined that the store was selling counterfeit products as name brand clothing.
