At the time of discovery, the patrol team called and asked people around to identify the owner and manager of the above goods, however, no organization or individual came to receive them.

The destruction is carried out under the close supervision of the authorities.

Through inspection, it was discovered that the goods were of unknown origin, the bags containing the goods were all printed with foreign words, including: 7,001 kg of Chinese sausage, 2,578 kg of young chicken eggs, 750 kg of pork brain.

The working group determined that the above goods are not on the list of goods allowed to be exchanged by border residents, but are conditionally imported goods (must be quarantined for animals upon import), therefore, the Customs authority has made a record of certification and a record of temporary detention for handling according to the provisions of law.
