Description

Australian authorities have dismantled a major illegal tobacco and vape smuggling operation linked to a Queensland bikie group. Over one million cigarettes and nine thousand vapes were seized, with investigators believing the goods belonged to a prominent Queensland group tied to an outlaw motorcycle gang. The group was reportedly importing illegal tobacco and vapes across Queensland and New South Wales, even operating retail outlets. The seizure underscores the scale of this illicit trade and its connection to organized crime, as every dollar spent on these products directly funds violence and other serious crimes.
