Thousands of cans of fake infant formula have entered the Chinese market, as authorities try to track down where the counterfeit products have ended up.
The fake cans are labelled as products from Similac, which is owned by American firm Abbott Laboratories, and Beingmate, one of the largest infant formula makers in China.

The police are on the hunt for the cans, as well as a suspect associated with a ring of fraudsters which had been discovered making the product and selling it to seven provinces in the country. Nine in the ring, including its alleged ringleader, surnamed Chen, have been arrested so far, according to (http://www.shanghaidaily.com/metro/society/Authorities-search-for-fake-infant-formula/shdaily.shtml) Shanghai Daily.
