A Malaysia-registered car was profiled by ICA officers at Woodlands Checkpoint and referred for further checks.
"More than 850 cartons and 2,280 packets of duty-unpaid cigarettes were found hidden in various modified compartments of the vehicle," said ICA in a Facebook post on March 10.
The case was referred to Singapore Customs for further investigation.
