One of Germany's top lawyers has been caught trying to smuggle an expensive watch through customs.
The woman hasn't been named but is described as a well-known lawyer at a Federal Court. She had returned to Frankfurt from her holiday in Mauritius and went through the "nothing to declare" channel. A customs officer pulled her over, searched her bags and found a €2,000 watch.
Presumably she now faces tax evasion charges, rather like her fellow German lawyer Ralph Wollberg when he was found with some undeclared and very expensive leather trousers at Dusseldorf airport. It's not known whether she followed Wollberg's galactically ill-considered example of reminding the customs officer of how very important he was.

Tax = extortion. The end.
