According to Anninhthudo, on May 7th, Hanoi's Quality Inspection Department and local police conducted an inspection and found a commercial entity engaged in express delivery services suspected of transporting finished tobacco products and e-cigarettes.

 

The department conducted an inspection of a cargo express service provider in Huade District, Hanoi, and found that the facility had 18 e-cigarette manufacturing machines, 370 bottles of e-cigarette liquid, and 6,300 packs of other forms of finished tobacco products.
