WINDSOR, ON, Sept. 20, 2013 /CNW/ - On September 18th, 2013 members of the Windsor RCMP executed a search warrant at a convenience store in the city's west end. As a result of the search approximately 215 cartons of illegal cigarettes were seized as well as a large quantity of cash.
Charged are:
Rivon Dali (Age 28)
Lina Daly (Age 22)
"Contraband tobacco increases the tax burden on Canadians through lost tax revenues. Legitimate businesses suffer because they cannot compete with the low cost of illegal cigarettes" stated Sgt. Dave Watts of the Windsor Detachment.
The accused in the matter are scheduled to appear in Windsor Provincial court on December 9th, 2013.
If you have information about the sale and distribution of illegal tobacco products or any other criminal activity you are asked to contact your local police department or the nearest RCMP detachment at 519-967-4353 ext (255) or 1-800-387-0020, or you can anonymously supply the information to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477)
