Chile: Police seize 3,000 liters of counterfeit hand sanitizers from illegal factory in Santiago

Chile's investigative police (PDI) seized nearly 3,000 liters of adulterated alcohol gel on Wednesday, which would be falsely marketed amid high demand during the coronavirus outbreak.

Footage shows hundreds of containers of the product in different bottles, many imitating popular brands that have sold out during panic over the COVID-19 pandemic.

"What was being offered was a type of alcohol gel that doesn't have the characteristics, at all, that could really serve to protect people in terms of cleanliness," said Jaime Ansieta, a detective from Chile's PDI unit.
