A large-scale criminal operation shook European customs services when the European Prosecutor's Office initiated an investigation into organized criminal activity. The investigation, launched Wednesday morning, focused on the 3rd Customs Service in Piraeus, Greece, while simultaneously covering activities in five additional countries.
The multinational operation includes coordinated actions from criminal services of Italy, Spain, Bulgaria, France, and Belgium. Specialized teams from the Directorate and Internal Affairs Service conducted extensive checks aimed at uncovering systematic fraud through false declarations.
Investigators conducted over 20 thorough searches, covering the customs service, accounting offices, private companies, and personal homes of employees. So far, the results are impressive - 4.5 million euros in cash have been seized, with checks covering 12 companies and six residential addresses of customs officers.
