Yesterday, servicemen of the Chop detachment with the help of a sniffer dog prevented an attempt to illegally move a rare pistol across the state border. It was found in a vehicle that was leaving Ukraine through the checkpoint "Uzhgorod" driven by a 51-year-old citizen of Poland.
During the border control of the motorcycle "BMW", law enforcement officers suspected that prohibited items might be being carried across the border in it. The vehicle was sent for an in-depth inspection using a dog. The sniffer dog soon found a hidden pistol "Browning" with ammunition. As it turned out in the course of the examination, it was made in 1943.
The border guards notified the officers of the Security Service and the National Police about the found firearms. The weapons and ammunition were seized according to the established procedure. At present, the foreigner is charged with a offense under Art. 201 of the CCU "Smuggling".
