Windsor police constable charged
WINDSOR, ON, July 9 /CNW/ - A Windsor Police Service Constable faces
federal charges following his arrest under the Customs Act.
Ronald HANSEN was charged with three counts of smuggling tobacco products
into Canada, contrary to section 159 of the Customs Act.
The RCMP in partnership with the Windsor Police Service, Canada Border
Services Agency, and U.S. Immigration Customs Enforcement conducted a six
month investigation in both Canada and the U.S. As a result of this
investigation police allege HANSEN obtained large quantities of un-stamped
tobacco products in the U.S for distribution in Windsor and elsewhere in
Ontario and Quebec.
The Governments of Canada and Ontario have many enforcement initiatives
designed to discourage sales of contraband tobacco. Federal and Provincial
tobacco penalties may include a jail term of up to 42 months as well as
charges related to tax evasion and other serious offences resulting in further
assessments of additional taxes, fines, seizures, forfeitures and other
penalties up to and including jail time.
