The Anti-Trafficking Unit of the Regie Libanaise des Tabacs et Tombacs seized large quantities of smuggled and counterfeit molasses (mu’assal), counterfeit cigars, as well as smuggled cigarettes and electronic cigarettes. These seizures were the result of raids in Maamoura and Haret Hreik in Beirut’s southern suburbs, as well as in Dora, Sin el Fil, Jeita and Zouk Mosbeh.
Seizure reports were filed against the violators and sent to the competent judicial authorities for further action.
