Mahon Port Police has seized hundred meters of illegal fishing nets after intercepting two sneaky fishermen in port inland waters. Police got a call reporting a possible violation. Port Police turned up with a Ports de Balears’ boat, given that it is an illegal but also an activity that may endanger navigation in the area. Alleged infringers admitted the facts, once warned about the danger of their acts and marked the spot where the nets were set. Events took place last October 19th and, despite bad weather conditions, Port Police got nets on board and safely return to port.
