Italian Media Reports 40 Nicotine E-cigarettes Seized in Raid

Italian media Zazoom reported on March 11 that Carabinieri seized 40 smuggled disposable nicotine e-cigarettes in a raid in Latina.

According to the Italian media Zazoom, on March 11, the Carabinieri paramilitary police seized 40 smuggled disposable e-cigarettes containing nicotine in a raid in the city of Latina.

An official from a prestigious school in Latina City reported to the constabulary that they had discovered the presence of e-cigarettes among underage students on campus. Following this tip-off, the constabulary conducted a search at a local convenience store where they successfully seized a batch of smuggled disposable e-cigarettes containing nicotine.

The shop owner has been charged with selling counterfeit products and should therefore face criminal responsibility. Currently, all smuggled e-cigarettes have been seized, and the Carabinieri army will continue to cooperate with schools and businesses to jointly combat such behavior.
