Additionally, Hamad Port Customs foiled a smuggling operation last week that involved tobacco products and a sizable number of cigarette cartons concealed among tea shipments. The tobacco that was seized weighed a total of 3,250 kilograms. On the other hand, a large amount of cigarettes that had been hidden in a shipment of tea to avoid paying taxes and customs fees was discovered. In total, there were 700,000.
Customs officials are given all available tools, such as the newest gadgets and ongoing training to analyze passenger body language and be knowledgeable about the most recent smugglers’ techniques.
