In Prykarpattia, authorities uncovered a scheme involving the smuggling of clothing, footwear, and accessories.

В Прикарпатье разоблачена схема контрабанды одежды, обуви и аксессуаров.


This is reported by the press service of the BEB.

According to the investigation, the products for smuggling were purchased in the Republic of Turkey and transported to the Romanian border. The suspect then redirected the goods in her hand luggage through a pedestrian crossing and declared them as personal belongings to avoid paying import duties on the items.

After passing through customs control, the goods were loaded into vehicles waiting near the crossing point in Ukraine and later sold through online platforms, shopping centers, and markets.

As a result of authorized searches at the crime scene and at the suspect's residence, detectives seized over 700 units of illegally imported goods.

Earlier in Ukraine, a scheme for smuggling luxury items across the state border from Poland was uncovered. This involved jewelry, diamonds, and Swiss watches.
