Tobacco is a national monopoly product. It is forbidden to operate tobacco products without obtaining a tobacco monopoly retail license. However, under the temptation of high profits, some operators took risks and embarked on the road of illegal crimes.

In summer, the "hundred -day action" was in full swing. Recently, when the Huangpu police jointly conducted a joint operation with the tobacco of Tobacco Monopoly Bureau, they found that there was a cigarette sales of a grocery store near a residential community. The staff immediately entered the store for inspection. However, the female shop owner Zhao was nervous when facing the inspection, and the whole person blocked the front of a tall container, and his behavior seemed very suspicious. After the police and the staff of the Tobacco Monopoly opened the container and carefully checked it, they actually found the hidden mystery. It turned out that there was a hidden partition wall behind this container, which actually hidden nearly a thousand cigarettes ...

Aware of this situation, the staff of the inspection team immediately asked Zhao about the matter. According to Zhao, the grocery store had previously applied for the "Tobacco Monopoly License" to engage in the business activities of Tobacco Monopoly, but the permit has expired as early as March 2021. In the face of high sales profits, Zhao and his husband Liu Moumou With fluke, he continues to sell cigarettes. Subsequently, the police took Zhao and Liu to the public security organs to continue the investigation.

After investigation, more than 1,800 tobacco involved in the grocery stores operated by the suspect Zhao and Liu, the preliminary estimate of the case was more than 220,000 yuan. At present, the two criminal suspects were taken criminal measures by public security organs for suspected illegal operation, and the case was under investigation.
