A joint operation by the Federal Revenue Service of Brazil and the Federal Police on the rivers that bathe the municipalities of Óbidos and Oriximiná, from the 21st to the 27th of this month, seized a vessel with a thousand boxes of national beers, unaccompanied by invoice.
Foreign goods (cameras, medicines, fishing nets, clothing with signs of irregularities, among others) were also apprehended, valued at approximately R $ 52 thousand.
The beer, being of national origin, was handed over to the State of Finance of the State of Par` for the assessment of the offenders. Foreign goods, on the other hand, must suffer the penalty of forfeiture and can then be incorporated, donated or destroyed.
With the reform of the Candiru base, the IRS opted to carry out constant one-off operations in the area, so as not to give respite to smuggling and embezzlement. (Diário Online / Ascom PF)
