On September 10 at 01:37, the Coast Guard of the State Border Service discovered an unknown vessel moving north from the Islamic Republic of Iran in the southern part of the Caspian Sea, the Press Center of the State Border Service of Azerbaijan told APA

When the border violator threw an unknown object on board the boat into the sea and tried to leave the area, a warning shot was fired by the border ship.

As a result of the interaction between the coast guard units of the Coast Guard and the border vessel, Bahnam Banda Mohammad, a citizen of the Islamic Republic of Iran, born in 1995, who attempted to cross the state border by means of a small boat, was detained.

As a continuation of the search measures, 2098 boxes of "Manchester Nano Black" cigarettes, which the border violator threw into the sea during the pursuit operation, were found and taken away.
