PASIR MAS: Customs officers seized 15,000 cartons of contraband cigarettes worth RM240,000 from a lorry in Setiu, Terengganu.
Kelantan Customs Department deputy director Mohd Nasir Yusof said the cigarettes were believed to have been smuggled from a neighbouring country.
A team of enforcement officers seized the contraband about 12.30pm.
Mohd Nasir said earlier, the team had trailed the lorry from Jelawat, Bachok in Kelantan and forced it to a stop in Kampung Fikri, Setiu.
“At that juncture, the driver abandoned the vehicle and fled,” he told reporters in Rantau Panjang.
