Whampoa Customs Cracked 6 Billion Yuan Worth Of Leather Smuggling Case

< p > < strong > layers of submission, concealment, customs clearance information < /strong > /p >
< p > "in July 25, 2013, the risk warning of the Customs Department and a public report aroused our vigilance." Lv Chengwen, deputy director of the Whampoa customs investigation department, told reporters. Subsequently, the Whampoa customs immediately analyzed the import data of < a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > Leather > /a >, and found that the price of blue wet sheepskin imported by a Huizhou company and a Shenzhen company was obviously lower than the market price, and there might be a low price smuggling risk. < /p >
< p > Whampoa customs quickly dispatched capable force to carry out inspection work. Soon, a logistics company in Hongkong surfaced. Apart from importing "blue wet sheepskin" at Sha Tin port in the Whampoa customs area, the company also imported "cattle leather" at the Guangyu port of the old port. The declared price was substantially lower than the market price. < /p >
Less than P, investigators found that after more than two months of investigation, it was found that a logistics company affiliated to a logistics company in Hongkong and a logistics company in Dongguan were suspected of engaging in leather smuggling in Shenzhen. < /p >
< p > investigators found that the above three logistics companies such as Hongkong, Shenzhen and Dongguan frequently went to and from the domestic leather market, and leather fairs, and promised the consignee a low price tax package to help customs clearance. < /p >
After the above three logistics companies collect goods, the goods ordered abroad will be shipped to Hongkong first. Then they will be dismantled, reassembled, labeled and packed in Hongkong to prepare for concealing customs information in the next stage. P For example, smugglers often put high value goods in containers and put low value on the outside, so as to lower prices. In order to cut the chain of evidence and avoid risks, the three logistics companies basically do not directly participate in domestic declarations. Instead, they subcontract goods to other "two packets" companies at a lower price, while the "two packets" companies have already received very low tax rates because they can only declare customs by making false documents, false reporting of origin and low price, so as to make profits. < /p >
< p > because of the factors such as origin, specifications, varieties, < a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/DESIGN/designer/index.asp" > processing technology < /a >, the price difference of < a href= "http://cailiao.sjfzxm.com/" > cattle and sheep hide > /a > is different. The smugglers took advantage of the loopholes. For example, the European leather was falsely reported to be India leather; the leather of 8-9 US dollars / kg was reported to be 1 US dollars / kg, and the price was lower than 80%. < /p >
< p > the means of committing a crime are basically solid. Whampoa customs has set up an action team to combat leather smuggling. From tens of thousands of information data, it has combed out 11 smuggling bands, suspects and smugglers who are active in Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Dongguan. < /p >
< p > March 5, 2014 morning, the action of "iron fist" started. The 98 action teams deployed in Guangzhou, Dongguan, Shenzhen, Foshan, Shantou, Maoming, Jiangmen, Tianjin, Baoding, Hohhot and other places also started arresting operations. At 8 a.m., all the involved persons arrived at the scene. < /p >
< p > investigation, from 2011 to the incident, 11 criminal gangs involving 15 customs areas were suspected to smuggle leather with a value of 6 billion 90 million yuan. < /p >
< p > < strong > leather smuggling endangers domestic animal husbandry < /strong > /p >
< p > according to the investigators, smuggling cowhide in addition to escaping the state tax and disturbing the normal trade order, has an impact on China's agricultural products processing industry and animal husbandry. After smuggling and import into the market, these leather products will have a greater impact on domestic leather and directly affect the development of China's leather processing industry and animal husbandry. < /p >
Besides, P also increased the pollution to the environment to some extent. According to statistics, the existing leather processing industry in China produces nearly 1 million tons of waste water each year. These high concentration organic wastewater has great toxicity and great harm to soil, water and crops, and has strong carcinogenicity. To this end, China's leather processing access threshold is higher, the Ministry of agriculture and environmental protection departments need the license to be qualified. However, after smuggling of imported cowhide into the market, most of them entered some small businesses which did not have the qualification of production and processing, thus increasing environmental pollution to a certain extent. < /p >
< p > in particular, it may have an impact on public health safety. As far as the case is concerned, the current smuggling techniques are false reports and low prices, and there are false reports of origin. Some smugglers will not be excluded, and the coming of leather from the epidemic areas will inevitably affect public health and safety. < /p >
