Customs Working Life

At all times the frontier was an irresistibly attractive place for rascals of all kinds. But there also were the people who always stopped them. Daily reports of Belarusian State Frontier Committee testify to that unambiguously.

At all times the frontier was an irresistibly attractive place for rascals of all kinds. But there also were the people who always stopped them. Daily reports of Belarusian State Frontier Committee testify to that unambiguously.

For instance, according to the press service of the State Frontier Committee, on August 4th at the entry point “Bruzgi” Grondo frontier guards found 5 cameras “Canon” in a “Ford” which was making its way from Poland to Belarus. The citizen of our republic was trying to smuggle the goods through the “green” corridor. The cameras were confiscated by the customs officials.

The same day at the entry point “Kozlovichi” Brest frontier guards withdrew from the traffic two articulated lorries which exceeded permissible level of radiation. One was bound for the Republic Belarus; its level of radiation was more than three times over the permissible. The other one, bound for Russia had an excess of 1.5 times.

Besides that, early in the morning on August 4th at a distance of 300 metres from the state frontier Pinsk frontier guards found two cows. The unknown person who intended to drive the animals through the frontier illegally hid himself on the Ukrainian territory.
