The Fair Trade Independent Tobacco Association (FITA) commended the Ekurhuleni metropolitan police department acting in conjunction with police Crime Intelligence for the bust. It said: > The cigarettes entered the country through the notoriously porous Beitbridge border post misleadingly described as cotton yarn. > This tactic seems to be gaining popularity among criminal enterprises. We have recently seen cigarettes that have been seized by law enforcement having entered the country illegally, mostly from Zimbabwe and predominantly through the Beitbridge border post and described as furniture, scrap metal and cotton yarn. *More: TimesLive* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
