“Officers... discovered during the inspection of a truck in Koroszczyn (a border crossing point with Belarus - ed.) that the driver was transporting tires used in Boeing civil planes instead of the declared car and bus tires,” the Polish National Revenue Administration reported.
The sender of the goods was a company registered in Spain, and the recipient was a firm from Azerbaijan.
“Criminal fiscal proceedings were initiated in connection with customs fraud. The sanctioned goods were detained,” Polish customs officials added.
