Fishing regulations were ignored. And regardless of the bans, two fishermen stocked up on sea urchins and were ready to resell them. They had not reckoned with the Carabinieri who stopped them and reported them. This is just one of the many activities carried out by the provincial command in recent days with the services of the military of the Oristano, Mogoro and Ghilarza Companies: a total of 602 people, 335 vehicles and 9 public places were checked.

The fishing

The charges contested are receiving stolen goods and possession of protected fish species. Two men in recent days while they were on board their car were stopped by the Carabinieri for a routine check. In the trunk of the car they had three containers containing numerous live sea urchins. The molluscs, whose fishing in some areas is always prohibited and is subject to strict rules, were immediately released back into the sea by the prevention technicians of the ASL of Oristano, called by the military. The two fishermen were unable to explain the origin of the sea urchins and in the end the complaints were filed.
