During the investigation conducted by the detectives of the Bureau of Economic Security (BEB), an industrial line on which counterfeit cigarettes were manufactured was discovered and seized.
Searches were conducted at the production and warehouse premises of the enterprise, which has a license for the official production of tobacco products.
The mentioned company is associated with a well-known under-sanctioned smuggler from Odessa. Our sources, familiar with the course of the case, confirmed that it is about the "king of smuggling" Vadym Alperin.
During the searches, the BEB employees seized a tobacco production line on which cigarettes were illegally manufactured.
