The Anti-Trafficking Unit of the Regie Libanaise des Tabacs et Tombacs seized large quantities of smuggled and counterfeit molasses (mu’assal), in addition to smuggled Ajami tunbac, cigarettes and electronic cigarettes.

These seizures were the result of raids in Ain Bourday, Bednayel and Ferzol.

Seizure reports were filed against the violators and sent to the competent judicial authorities for further action.
