THE Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (Zimra) has reported a significant increase in the interception of prohibited goods, seizing items worth US$725 423 in 2023 alone.
This represents a 101 percent increase compared to the US$361 420 worth of prohibited goods detected in 2022.
Zimra attributes this success to the expanded presence of its canine unit (K9) at major ports of entry, including international airports.
In collaboration with state security agents, Zimra has seized contraband such as cannabis, heroin, and skin lightening creams.
