 ◆ Smuggled Pirated Foreign CDs Nabbed

Officers with Shantou Customs in south China's Guangdong Province last week stopped two vans attempting to smuggle in 902,000 pirated foreign compact discs. According to customs sources, the confiscated CDs are estimated to be worth 2.74 million yuan (US$330,120). On Dec. 8 customs officers in Shantou's Haifeng branch on the eastern coast of Guangdong, were informed that two vans loaded with smuggled pirated CDs were leaving Haifeng. Two groups of customs officers finally tracked down and stopped the two vans at two separate spots inside Haifeng. The case is still under investigation. Shantou is a port city on the eastern coast of Guangdong.
