Major Cigarette Smuggling Ring Dismantled in Montenegro by SDT and SPO Operation

A coordinated operation by the Special State Prosecutor's Office (SDT) and the Special Police Department (SPO) has successfully dismantled a significant cigarette smuggling ring in Montenegro. The operation resulted in the arrest of 14 individuals across several locations, including Podgorica, Zeta, Nikšić, Pljevlja, and Herceg Novi. This action targets illicit trafficking activities that undermine legitimate commerce and state revenue. The arrests are part of ongoing efforts to combat organized crime within the country. Authorities are continuing their investigation into the network's operations. The dismantling of this ring is considered a major blow to smuggling operations in the region.
