Bulgarian customs officers at the border with Turkiye seized 3,220 litres of olive oil and 130 boxes of packaged instant soup as well as vegetable and meat bouillon cubes, none of which had been declared to the authorities, the Customs Agency reported on Monday. The products were found on May 11 in a Turkish-registered long-haul truck with a trailer which was going through the Kapitan Andreevo border checkpoint on its way from Turkiye to Germany.
The undeclared goods were hidden among legally transported packs of sunflower seeds. They were detected during a comprehensive customs check using X-ray equipment. The check was part of joint anti-smuggling efforts by the Customs Agency, the General Directorate Combating Organized Crime, the Border Police and the National Revenue Agency.
A written statement of violation of customs regulations was drawn up against the Turkish driver.
