Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) officers foiled an attempt to smuggle in over 1,200 heat sticks, e-vaporisers and related components via Changi Airport Terminal 3 on Sunday (Nov 23).
In a Facebook post on Tuesday (Nov 25), ICA said that the case involved a 39-year-old South Korean woman who holds a Singapore employment pass.
ICA officers asked the woman if she had anything to declare prior to baggage screening, but she said she had nothing to declare and officers proceeded with a check on her belongings.
Two e-vaporisers, more than 50 e-vaporiser pods and over 1,200 heat sticks were found among her belongings, ICA added.
