Two lorries were seized after a HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) raid at Cairnryan last night.
The vehicles were towed out of Stena Line's facility at the port near Stranraer on Tuesday July 12. Customs officers were spotted arriving at the site yesterday afternoon in high-vis vests, with "HM Customs" lettering on the back, to carry out the inspection.
Some time later in the evening, the vehicles were removed from the premises by a recovery pickup truck. The contents of each lorry are currently unknown at this stage but the Record understands it is a civil matter and not criminal.
