Ireland seen as ‘easy target’ for international smugglers
International gangs consider Ireland an easy target for smuggling, and will continue to operate here if stricter measures are not enforced, a retail group has warned. Retailers Against Smuggling (RAS), which represents around 3,000 shops in Ireland, made the claim following the publication of Revenue’s latest list of defaulters. The list, which covers the final quarter of 2014, shows that the majority of those convicted for cigarette smuggling were foreign nationals.
