PHNOM PENH, Cambodia (AP) - Cambodian authorities have seized seven tons of counterfeit beauty products in the nation's biggest such bust of the year.
Police said Wednesday they raided a home on the outskirts of Phnom Penh and found imitations of Cambodian brands of soap, lotions, powders and cosmetics.
Police Col. Long Sreng said four people were arrested in Monday's raid.
Authorities say the counterfeit products can be hazardous for health.
In March, a 23-year-old Cambodian woman died after using a skin-whitening cream that officials said contained high levels of mercury.
