Six individuals from Moldova, including one with Romanian citizenship, were detained in Bulgaria for carrying nearly $1.2 million undeclared. The cash was vacuum-sealed and hidden in elastic belts worn under their clothing. The incident occurred on November 6 at the Lesovo border crossing while they were traveling to Turkey. The Moldovan Foreign Ministry confirmed the case and the opening of six criminal investigations. Each of the five Moldovan citizens had $200,000, while the sixth had $199,900. Bulgarian authorities have seized the money and are conducting investigations under the supervision of prosecutors in Yambol. The origin and purpose of the funds remain unclear and will be determined during the investigation.
