In the morning, border guards of the "Luzhanka" department of the Mukachevo detachment in Transcarpathia prevented the illegal transportation of tobacco products across the border.
During the patroling, the border guards noticed a group of people carrying boxes wrapped in black polyethylene towards the border.
The border guards immediately began chasing them, made warning shots in the air, but the offenders, taking advantage of a significant distance from the law enforcement officers, ran away. The smugglers left packages with ten boxes of cigarettes near the state border.
Currently, the measures to identify a circle of persons involved in the illegal activities are being taken.
The packages, that the offenders planned to carry to Hungary, contained 4,950 packs of cigarettes without excise tax stamps, – the press service of the Mukachevo border detachment informed.
