A man said to have made more than £1 million selling fake designer clothes has been ordered to pay more of the money back.
Tarique Ali, 66, was caught flogging counterfeit Nike and Ralph Lauren goods at Glasgow’s Barras Market in October 2009.
Prosecutors stated Ali earned £1,323,580 from the illegal business.
This came after he was found guilty to being concerned in the supply of counterfeit goods in April 2013.
Ali, of the city’s Pollokshields, was admonished at Glasgow Sheriff Court.
He was the subject of a Proceeds of Crime probe and ordered to pay just £1.
The market trader was said to have no assets at the time of the hearing.
The Crown were told they could apply for more of the dirty money back if Ali’s financial situation changed.
The confiscation order was updated in September 2015 to £1,479.48 which was paid in full.
Ali was not present at a court hearing today he was told to pay a further £16,722.11.
It was revealed that Ali’s property in Kirkcaldy Road is in positive equity and has £14,127.63 in realisable interest.
Ali’s Vauxhall Vivaro and Peugeot 207 cars also have a combined reasonable value of £1,115.
His lawyer, Neil McCulloch, told the court: “The money recovered by the Crown is inheritable property.”
Sheriff Paul Crozier ordered the cash to be paid back within the next six months.
