A COUPLE who are accused of selling tens of thousands of pounds worth of counterfeit goods have been released on bail by a judge.
Darren and Michaela Roberts face a series of trademark offences after police and Trading Standards launched a dawn raid on their home in June last year.
It is alleged they had fake designer trainers, handbags, T-shirts and bracelets worth more than thousands inside the house, a garage and a garden shed.
And the couple, who live together In Redhouse Way, are also accused of concealing criminal property.
No charges were formally put to Darren, 47, and Michaela, 44, during the brief hearing at Swindon Crown Court and they did not enter pleas.
It is alleged that their trade in counterfeit items had netted them in excess of £20,000.
Judge Peter Blair QC adjourned the case to Friday November 14 and released them on bail until then.
