Written on .

HM Customs Marine Section, assisted by Gibraltar Defence Police Officers, have seized approximately 150 cartons of cigarettes and arrested a Spanish national at Western Beach. The incident took place last night when an individual was seen attempting to swim across to Spain with two large bags.

In a separate incident, HM Customs arrested a Spanish national whilst attempting to export a commercial amount of rolling tobacco in his vehicle. A thorough search of the vehicle revealed specially designed compartments containing 425 packets of rolling tobacco.

Both detainees have been released on bail until a later date when they are due to appear at the Magistrates’ Court.
