Arrested Teen Selling Illegal E-cigarettes on Social Media
In recent news, according to the report by the Sao Jose dos Campos Television Station in Brazil, a 19-year-old individual was arrested by the local Federal Police for illegally selling e-cigarettes through social media in the Taubate region.
A recent investigation by PF has revealed that he has been promoting e-cigarettes on social media and arranging sales through messaging apps, followed by delivering the products to targeted locations. The police recently conducted a search and seizure operation in the Villa San Gerardo community where the suspect resides, as authorized by the city's First Federal Court.
At the scene, the company discovered multiple e-cigarette devices, e-liquids, and device chargers, which were subsequently seized. Selling this product in Brazil is deemed a criminal offense according to a resolution by Anvisa in 2009. Consequently, the young man has been arrested for smuggling and could potentially face a maximum sentence of five years imprisonment.
