Federal Highway Police in Brazil Seize E-cigs on SC477 Highway
Brazilian Federal Highway Police seized 965 sets of electronic cigarettes on SC477 highway, suspecting possible smuggling.

The Brazilian Federal Highway Police seized a vehicle on the SC477 highway and found 965 sets of various brands of electronic cigarettes inside it.

 

A driver, aged 42, admitted to charging 2,000 Brazilian reals (approximately 2,877 Chinese yuan) for transporting goods. The police inspection revealed a potential involvement in smuggling, prompting the driver, vehicle, and cargo to be handed over to the federal police for further investigation. Additionally, military and police conducted a thorough search of the vehicle using sniffer dogs.

BAT France: France’s Ban on Nicotine Pouches Could Undermine EU Harmonization and Public Health Goals

However, the company warns that excessively high taxation or unilateral bans by Member States (such as France’s plan to prohibit nicotine pouches) could harm public health objectives, undermine the EU single market, and encourage illicit trade.
