SARAJEVO, Nov. 10 (Xinhua) -- Border police in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) foiled the smuggling of 15 Pakistani and Moroccan nationals in two separate incidents, the BiH Border Police said on Tuesday.

On Nov. 7, BiH border police officers prevented the smuggling of eight Pakistani nationals in the Livno area, near the border with Croatia. They were being transported in two cars driven by BiH citizens, the border police said.

On Nov. 9, BiH border police officers intercepted seven Moroccan nationals, including two minors, in Ustikolina, near the border with Montenegro. They were found in two cars driven by BiH citizens and had no identification documents, according to the border police.
