Revenue officers have seized a quantity of smuggled tobacco at a location in Louth yesterday.
As a result of routine profiling, Revenue officers seized 90kgs of ‘roll your own’ tobacco, with an estimated retail value of over €63,000, representing a potential loss to the Exchequer of approximately €49,000.
The smuggled tobacco branded ‘Amber Leaf’ originated in Spain and was discovered following the search, under warrant, of a premises in the County.
A man in his 30s was questioned.
These seizures are part of Revenue’s ongoing operations targeting the shadow economy and the supply and sale of illegal tobacco products.
