TEENS ACCUSED OF SMUGGLING
CORNWALL, Ontario - Two Akwesasne girls face charges for reportedly
attempting to smuggle $217,000 Canadian across the border at the
Cornwall port of entry.
The unidentified girls, ages 14 and 18, were stopped Sunday by
Canadian Border Services Agency officers. A search of the vehicle
found the hidden money, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police said Thursday.
Both were charged with failing to report the currency to customs
agents. The $217,000 Canadian was seized under the Proceeds of Crime
and Terrorist Financing Act of 2003.
People must report any currency valued at $10,000 Canadian or more at
the border, RCMP officials said.
