Lincolnshire Police has discovered nearly 46,000 contraband cigarettes hidden in a shop in Bourne,
as part of a county wide operation to crackdown on illegal sales. The secret storeroom also contained 1.4 kilogrammes of hand rolling tobacco and over 750 vapes at the store on North Street in the town. They also found similar stashes in shops in Grantham, Lincoln and Gainsborough as part of Operation Machinize last month, which is led by the National Crime Agency. They urge anyone who believes something similar is happening where they live to report it.
