Countering drug smuggling: Mono Couffo Rapid Response Service takes counterfeit products

In the interests of permanent economic protection, the Director General of Customs and Indirect Rights, Dr. Lieutenant-Colonel Charles Inousa BOCO SACCA instructed all Response Services to increase vigilance and strengthen controls.

Thus, during the execution of service n°213 of 27/07/2020 and on the operation of a fraud notice, the agents of the Rapid Response Service of Mono and Couffo intercepted on the shoulder Cotonou Hilla-Condji, a mini bus registered AV 3117 RB from Togo.

When questioned at the level of SEGBOHOUE, the driver of the vehicle, who first complied with the injunctions, subsequently fled his descent from the vehicle. The ecor at the headquarters of the Unit made it possible to discover on board one hundred (100) cartons of counterfeit pharmaceutical products (Ceftriaxone sodium 1g; Philco-diclo 50mg; Analgin injection 5ml; Paracetamol 500mg; Amoxicillin 500mg; Efferalgan 500mg; Pediatric efferalgan 90ml; Ciprofloxacin 500 mg).

Benin Customs are moving forward, let's move on with it!
