Gold smuggling.

-

GA prosecutor has recommende­d the release of all suspects involved in a gold smuggling case due to oversight by police investigat­ors. The eight suspects were remanded in pretrial custody on charges of smuggling gold to Turkey. The prosecutor is reportedly in agreement with the assessment of an investigat­ive magistrate earlier this week that “there are no longer reasons for their temporary detention” after a Justice Ministry body said the smuggling charges cannot be be substantia­ted as the the export of gold to Turkey does not carry duties or tariffs.
