A WEALTHY businessman is facing jail for masterminding a huge fake designer labels scam.

Nazakat Hussain, 45, who runs a string of sports shops, supplied dodgy goods to market stalls around the country.

Investigators who seized pounds 100,000 worth of counterfeit Nike, Lacoste and Fred Perry trainers linked invoices for them to his business.

Hussein, of Walsall, West Mids, was convicted of trademark offences at Inner London crown court last week.
