[QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 51664, member: 636"] Customs raiders struck major ports and checkpoints during a massive two-day crackdown that netted billions in contraband goods. Enforcement teams swarmed Asia World Port and discovered industrial merchandise worth K2.57 billion stashed inside 81 shipping containers without proper paperwork. Airport warehouse inspectors grabbed another K11 million in consumer products during their sweep of Yangon International Airport facilities. Officials slapped legal charges on smugglers under customs regulations after the huge haul. The combined seizures from both locations reached K2.58 billion in total value. Border guards at Yadanabon Bridge checkpoint nabbed Chinese food imports valued at K2.34 million that lacked documentation. Timber thieves lost K3.6 million worth of stolen teak and ironwood when forest officers raided illegal operations in Bago Region. Roadblock teams intercepted four delivery trucks carrying undeclared merchandise worth K146.8 million as they crossed into Mandalay Region from neighboring areas. Myawady inspectors confiscated K41.6 million in industrial materials during raids on Ward 6 businesses. Police forces rounded up 12 unregistered vehicles and 32 illegal motorcycles during separate enforcement sweeps. Authorities recorded 19 separate criminal cases during the intensive weekend operation. The Illegal Trade Eradication Steering Committee coordinated all enforcement activities across multiple regions and border crossings. Seized contraband reached an estimated total value of K2.78 billion from both days of raids. Legal proceedings will advance under various laws including customs regulations and import restrictions.
