An Estonian pensioner was convicted of trying to smuggle two pans, coffee filters and 50 euros to Russia.
A 62-year-old woman tried to cross the border three times: in February she was found with two aluminum pans, in March she was found with a €50 bill, and in October she was found with a thousand coffee filters. The court decided that none of this could be brought to Russia due to anti-Russian sanctions. As a result, the woman was sentenced to four months of probation, but with the proviso that she will not try to smuggle pans and other goods prohibited by sanctions into the Russian Federation again.
The things that initially caused the trial were destroyed, and 50 euros were confiscated in favor of the Estonian state.
