Saudi Customs conducted an inspection outside the Customs Department, after coordination with the relevant authorities, and searched a house in the east of the country, used as a warehouse for smuggling. This seizure also resulted in the seizure of 304 kg of prohibited fruit and 173 bottles of perfume. Of the counterfeit brands, 57 bags were sold for sale, in addition to two license plates, cash in different currencies and bonds. Mohamed Al-Ali Al-Naeem, deputy governor for security issues at the General Customs Authority, said that this process had been implemented after collecting inquiries and conducted the necessary investigations into the attempt to smuggling of banned materials recently foiled at King Fahd Causeway's customs. In one of the houses of Dammam, it was necessary to establish a customs team and carry out a search at the home of the competent authority. The seized documents were found inside the seized materials, indicating that a number of people residing in the Kingdom were also seized. Al Naeem added that, on the basis of information exchanged with the Bahraini side through the Regional Information Exchange Office (RAILO) and after conducting preliminary inquiries with those arrested, it had been established that there was a relationship between them and one of the persons with antecedents in the Kingdom of Bahrain. Naeem explained in this regard that this process, which took place outside the customs office, is in line with the unified customs system, which states that customs officers have the right, if there is sufficient evidence of the presence of contraband and Replace in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
