According to a report by the BBC on March 13th, Lincolnshire police discovered illegal e-cigarettes hidden behind secret panels in four shops in Grantham. The Trading Standards Agency stated that these e-cigarettes contained a nicotine concentration equivalent to 315 regular cigarettes.

 

On March 11, the police conducted five raids at stores in Graham, where illegal e-cigarettes were found hidden behind panels on the shelves at Biedronka and Europe Foods on Pier Road.
