They fished with illegal nets. For this reason, the Port Authority of Oristano, under the coordination of the 13th Fishing Area Control Center of the Maritime Directorate of Cagliari, in addition to seizing the tools , sanctioned the commanders of two fishing boats moored at the industrial port of Oristano, but coming from Mazara del Vallo.

The activity was carried out as part of checks on the fishing supply chain: during the inspection, Coast Guard personnel ascertained that the two fishing vessels were using irregular nets whose use «seriously harms the marine ecosystem, as the non-conformity of the size of the meshes that make up these tools significantly modifies their selectivity and therefore allows the capture of specimens of a smaller size than that permitted, as well as still in the growth and reproduction phase".

The military accused the two Commanders of the possession of unauthorized fishing gear and imposed administrative sanctions for a total of 6,000 euros , in addition to the seizure of the nets removed from use and duly placed under the custody of the Maritime Authority.
