News review

It was learned from Shenzhen Customs that the customs office of Wenjindu recently seized a case of imported empty cars smuggling Japanese koi, and seized a total of 23 large and valuable koi and a batch of koi seedlings made in Japan.

On the morning of that day, a lorry declared to be empty entered the Man Kam to Customs and was inspected by the Customs and Excise Department. Upon inspection, the Customs and Excise Department found that there was a pile of cartons covered with white foam boxes hidden in the compartment of the vehicle.

The cartons range from 70 cm to 1 m in length and are all packed with Japanese koi sealed with transparent plastic film for professional oxygen supply. These koi have red and white or red, black and white and other beautiful colors, a total of 23, the average length of 85cm, the longest 100cm, relatively rare. At the same time, 120 valuable 10-15cm brocade carp fry were seized. The person in charge of Wenjindu Customs said that this is the first time in recent years that the customs has seized a large and valuable Japanese koi case.

It is reported that the Japanese koi is a kind of valuable large ornamental fish with a life span of 60-70 years and a body length of 1-1.5 meters. With the change of age and ambient water temperature, the pattern, color and shape of the koi will continue to change. It has the reputation of "king of ornamental fish" and "swimming jewel". These precious Japanese koi are expensive, with a price tag of tens of thousands of yuan on the market, and some top-grade koi as high as hundreds of thousands of yuan.

According to the Customs, due to the increasing consumer demand in the domestic ornamental fish market, especially on the eve of holidays such as New Year's Day and the Spring Festival, some lawbreakers took risks in desperation under the temptation of high profits and tried to bring smuggled ornamental fish into the country. The Customs will continue to maintain a high-pressure anti-smuggling situation and maintain normal import and export order.

At present, the batch of Japanese koi has been handed over to the customs anti-smuggling department and the inspection and quarantine department for further disposal.
