Tripoli Port: Customs seize 36,000 cans of banned alcohol
The customs authorities have announced the seizure of a 20‑foot container carrying 36,430 cans of banned alcoholic drinks, each with a capacity of 500ml. The Customs Authority said the contraband was uncovered by its Anti‑Smuggling and Narcotics team in Tripoli, working in collaboration with colleagues at Tripoli Seaport. The container was part of a shipment of ten units imported by a local company, which had declared the goods as 'barley drinks' in its customs statement.
