Customs-free tobacco products in the possession of a 59-year-old

A notice of payment of a sum of two thousand euros was issued to a 59-year-old man, in whose possession a quantity of duty-free tobacco products was found.

According to the Police, after a search carried out last night in Limassol, in the car of the 59-year-old, members of the Limassol Police Department found 37 boxes of ten packs of cigarettes, three boxes of five packs of tobacco, six packs of cigarettes and two packs of tobacco.

The 59-year-old was arrested and taken for questioning, as the packages did not bear the necessary markings and suspicions were raised that they were duty-free products.

An official of the Customs Department was called to the offices of OPE, who found that the tobacco products were duty-free and after confiscating them, issued to the 59-year-old out-of-court settlement the payment of 2,000 euros.
