PHNOM PENH, May 30 (Xinhua) -- Cambodian police had confiscated more than 30 tons of illegal cosmetic products in raids on two locations in Phnom Penh last week, the government's Counter Counterfeit Committee said in a press release on Tuesday.
The seized cosmetics and short-time skin whitening lotions had been imported from neighboring countries illegally and stored and distributed in Cambodia without quality-assured certificates, the press release said.
"These cosmetics and short-time skin whitening lotions are suspicious of causing dangers or a long-term impact on people's health," it said.
It was the third remarkable crackdown on counterfeits.
Earlier this month, the Counter Counterfeit Committee seized a total of 68 tons of fake beauty products, including shampoo and skin whitening creams, during two raids in Phnom Penh and southern Kandal province.
