The medications were in the woman’s bag among personal items.

According to Ukrainian law, individuals have the right to carry narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances purchased under prescriprition of a physician, in the presence of and under the prescription issued by the health care institution.

These actions have signs of violation of customs rules under Article 472 of the Customs Code of Ukraine, therefore under Article 511 of this Code, the objects of violation of customs regulations were confiscated, and a report on violation of customs regulations was drawn up.
