Precious watches and jewelry worth more than UAH 12 million were found on the border with Poland
Shehyni stopped the attempt to illegally move precious watches and jewelry worth more than UAH 12 million across the border.
The intentions of our compatriot to secretly move a batch of watches and jewelry across the Ukrainian-Polish border, in the course of the sale of information, were hindered by the SBU staff together with the border guards of the operational-search unit.
The 51-year-old resident of Lviv region was heading to the entrance to Ukraine through the checkpoint “Shegyny”. To pass the control, the pedestrian chose the “green corridor” lane.
However, law enforcement officers sent the person for additional verification. During the inspection among the personal belongings of the traveler, 15 ROLEX watches, 9 pieces of diamond stones of different weights and 16 pieces of jewelry made of white precious metal were found.
A protocol was drawn up on this fact. The goods, the estimated value of which exceeds 12 million hryvnias, has been withdrawn.
