ATHENS: Customs officials arrested a 30-year-old Armenian man at Piraeus port on Friday after discovering more than 1,230 cardboard boxes of contraband cigarettes in a shipping container that had arrived from China.
The cigarettes were hidden at the back of the container, which was carrying clothes. Authorities said that a total of 12.3 million cigarettes were seized and that the state would have missed out on revenues of €2.2 million if the contraband had reached the market.
