KOTA BARU, July 16 — The Royal Malaysian Customs Department in Kelantan broke up an attempt to smuggle cigarettes worth almost RM2 million including tax in an operation in Jalan Kuala Kemasin, Bachok, last Tuesday .
He said a subsequent search carried out at 1am last Tuesday found a five-tonne lorry abandoned on the roadside in Jalan Kuala Kemasin. “The cigarettes were estimated to be worth RM208,000 in the local market while the total tax involved was as much as RM1,736,800,” he said at the JKDM office here today.
