Constanta organised crime police officers on Tuesday checked the cargo of a container ship in the local port and will notify prosecutors as their check revealed waste illegally shipped from Germany.
According to the statement, the paper produced indicated that the container had to contain various electric household appliance and used bed mattresses, but, upon inspection, it was found that "they do not meet the requirements for being unloaded or marketed in Romania, as the cargo was in fact waste about which the relevant authorities have not been notified according to the Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006."
"The customs authorities will order the return of the goods in the container concerned to the country of origin, namely Germany", according to the statement.
