JOHOR BARU: The Customs Department has managed to foil smuggling attempts in five separate raids across the state between July and August 2024, resulting in the seizure of contraband cigarettes and alcohol worth RM11.7mil.
Johor Customs Department director Aminul Izmeer Mohd Sohaimi said that the syndicate’s modus operandi involved making false declarations of goods to evade detection by Customs officers.
