Police officers recovered 300 illegal cigarettes from Ratnams, in Wakefield, during an investigation on March 3 this year. A licensing hearing was told how police carried out the operation after receiving intelligence about illegal activity at the store on Hambleton Street, Eastmoor. Test purchase officers went into the shop and were sold two 20-packs of counterfeit cigarettes.

The packs were sold for £5 each and the money was then placed in the till by the shop assistant. The meeting was told that the average UK price for 20 cigarettes is around £12.50. Police officers went to the shop later that day and recovered further packs of illegal cigarettes. Vapes were also on sale which contained levels of nicotine much higher than the legal limit.
