The illegal manufacture of excise goods will be subject to prosecution, this will be laid down in the Penal Code, Prosecutor General Sotir Tsatsarov said.
At this time only possession and sale of illicit cigarettes and alcohol is subject to prosecution, not their manufacture. Amendments to the law will make machines and equipment for the manufacture of excise goods subject to registration.
