More than a dozen businesses in the Top End have been raided as part of a major illegal tobacco bust, from car yards and clothing stores to grocers and petrol stations.
During a six-day blitz, authorities say they seized more than 300,000 illegal cigarettes and 1,500 vapes in the fourth major operation aimed at disrupting the Territory’s black-market trade.
