Customs officers and the Centre for Food Safety on Sunday said they have seized 2,700 kilogrammes of suspected smuggled hairy crabs and about 4 kilogrammes of crawfish worth HK$1.3 million.
Authorities said in a joint operation on Friday, officers seized the haul after intercepting an incoming goods vehicle at the Man Kam To Control Point.
They also found that the seized hairy crabs did not come with health certificates issued by the relevant authorities, and failed to comply with the requirements of the Shell Fish (Hairy Crab) Permit.
A 54-year-old male goods vehicle driver is assisting the investigation, officers said.
