Three smugglers who imported illicit cigarettes into Heathrow Airport concealed in fish pumps and table tops have been jailed for more than 10 years.
Al Gui He, 38, Ya Ming He, 44, and Shou Chen, 48, were caught in June 2016 at Heathrow Airport. Border Force officers discovered hidden tobacco that had arrived from China.
The trio used lock-ups at six storage facilities across London to store the illicit cigarettes and hand-rolling tobacco, evading £475,000 in unpaid excise duty in the process.
