The seized goods, valued at R$ 370,000, went through the appropriate procedures and were sent to the headquarters of the Federal Revenue.
The daily surveillance actions in the river network in Óbidos, in the Lower Amazon region, through the Integrated River Base "Candiru", resulted in the seizure of 101 bags of semi-jewels and 23 cell phones that did not present regular invoices. The items originated from the Free Trade Zone of Manaus. The goods are valued at R$ 370,000.00.
