An attempt to smuggle expensive iPhone phones was stopped at Tashkent Airport. The incident occurred when a passenger, flying on the "Doha-Tashkent" route, tried to illegally bring in 9 iPhone 17 phones through customs without declaring them.
Smuggling detection
A citizen of Uzbekistan attempted to hide the phones in his luggage, and thus, by not declaring the items in the customs declaration, he tried to illegally import phones worth 230 million UZS. These phones were temporarily seized as contraband items and were checked by customs experts. This case became another successful example of combating smuggling.
Results of passport and luggage check
Customs officers at the international airport's special customs complex detected the expensive mobile phones after conducting a check on the passenger. Over time, phones that were not declared in the customs declaration were found hidden in the luggage. This approach aims to uncover smuggling and combat the illegal importation of goods into the country.
Violation of the law and measures against it
Attempts at smuggling are considered illegal and unacceptable actions. Currently, an investigation is being carried out by customs and law enforcement agencies regarding this case. In recent years, the fight against smuggling in Uzbekistan has gained special attention.
The importance of anti-smuggling policy
This case supports the work of customs authorities and strengthens confidence in their strict policy against smuggling. The development of modern technologies and approaches to detecting smuggling at airports will enhance the effectiveness of this work. The incident in Tashkent has led to the spread of news, and through new technologies and systems, even more effective decisions must be made to prevent such cases.
Undoubtedly, this is an important step for the country's economy and security.
