Five countries’ state authorities' seals were confiscated from the citizen of Moldova

He tried to smuggle them in Pridnestrovie

This incident occurred at the Dubossary Bridge Customs Checkpoint. As the press service of the State Customs Committee (SCC) reports, this citizen tried to drive in the Pridnestrovie’s territory by car. When he was crossing the checkpoint, he said that he didn’t bring anything illegal. However, the SCC officers noticed that the Moldova’s citizen was suspiciously anxious, and decided to carry out a rigorous inspection of the vehicle.

As a result, the package with nineteen seals and stamps were found in the compartment for spare wheel. Among them there were attributes of customs and tax authorities of Moldova, Russia, Romania, Bulgaria, Ukraine, and also the distributors of one well-known US company and the Kazakhstan enterprise.

The man answered the Pridnestrovie’s customs officers' question concerning the belongment of the seals that he owned a transport company and attached the missing seals to the documents.

In such way, this citizen organized illegal traffic across the borders of these five states. The administrative proceedings are carried out. The Pridnestrovie’s customs authorities made informative notes for all organizations and enterprises specified on the seals and stamps.
