Frequent arrests made by Customs and Excise Department at Sungai Tujoh border control post have failed to deter people from attempting to smuggle contraband goods into the country.
On Monday evening, customs border inspection personnel and customs enforcement officers arrested a 26year-old male foreign student for smuggling in 14 cartons of cigarettes.
At the border control post in Belait District, he declared bringing in a carton of cigarettes, 12 cans of beer and two bottles of liquor. For the goods declared, he made the tax payments accordingly.
However, customs inspectors searched his vehicle and found an additional 14 cartons of cigarettes hidden underneath the seats and car mat.
