Customs seizes 8 million illegal cigarettes
Latvian customs officers have seized a haul of around 8 million illegal cigarettes while checking a container cargo at the Free port of Riga this month, the tax authority informed on Monday.
The confiscation of the contraband cigarettes prevented a loss of more than a million euros (1.08 U.S. dollars) to the Latvian government budget, according to the State Revenue Service’s estimate.
The Latvian Tax and Customs Police have opened a criminal investigation into the smuggling case.
