New Collection on Japan Tobacco and Smuggling

The Legacy Tobacco Documents Library has added 100 new Philip Morris documents today and a new research collection, JTI Smuggling. 

The 42 documents in this new collection were obtained by the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) and detail Japan Tobacco International's (JTI) smuggling activities throughout Russia, Moldova, the Balkans, Afghanistan and the Middle East, and their subsequent cover-up. See OCCRP's investigation, Big Trouble at Big Tobacco, for more in-depth information.
