Tobacco smuggled out of Wellington factory sold on social media
“It’s an offense if you buy stolen products. Like, if a deal is too good to be true, it is too good to be true,” said Inspector Bronwyn Marshall of Wellington Police.
The product usually ends up overseas, but in a case that’s seen four men in the Hutt Valley District Court, most of the stolen goods were sold locally on social media.
