It was after a chase that the customs officers of Frouzins got their hands last weekend on traffic in contraband cigarettes from Andorra.
97,000 euros worth of cigarettes, traffickers on the run
On the night of Saturday October 22 to Sunday October 23, they posted themselves in the Cintegabelle sector, on the border of Ariège and Haute-Garonne. on the RD820 between Pinsaguel and Pamiers. Officials intercept a convoy of three cars. Two vehicles managed to break through the portcullis dam while the other turned around. The device having made it possible to neutralize their tires, the occupants of the three cars were forced to stop but turned out to flee on foot.
The three cars are searched, we discover no less than 972 cartons of cigarettes! At ten euros per package in trade, the approximate market value is therefore estimated at nearly 100,000 euros.
