The fuel truck was checked with the help of an X-ray, according to the documents, it was supposed to transport 19 tons of liquefied gas through the territory of Lithuania to the Kaliningrad region. More than 286,000 packs of Belarusian cigarettes were found in the tank. The Vilnius branch of the Criminal Customs Service launched a pre-trial investigation into the smuggling. The fuel truck driver was detained for two days, but later released on bail.
