The Penghu Investigation Division of the Coast Guard Administration recently received a tip-off about criminals smuggling cigarettes into Taiwan on a fishing boat. After a lengthy investigation, a special team intercepted a fishing boat in Badouzi, Keelung, and found 460 boxes (230,000 packs) of contraband cigarettes on board, worth about 15 million NTD. The captain and six crew members were arrested and handed over for legal action. The Coast Guard reminds the public not to purchase cigarettes of unknown origin and to report any illegal activities to maintain public safety.
