Customs and police stumbled upon the factory when investigating a burglary of 80kg of tobacco.

Quite fascinating that illegally manufacturing cigarettes is now a worthwhile endeavour for someone.

I guess it’s worthwhile if you don’t pay for the tobacco.

  I suspect the tobacco was headed their way already, the robbery sounds like a failed attempt to CYA.
