In the early morning of the 13th, the Hailing Island Border Police Station seized more than 3,000 kilograms of crabs suspected of being poached, which was the largest number of stolen fishing goods seized during the fishing moratorium this year. In the afternoon, the fresh crabs were released into the sea.
According to reports, on the same day, when the officers and men of the Hailing Border Defense Police Station were patrolling the Hailing Dayang Wharf, they found three suspicious trucks parked on the edge of the wharf. The inspection found a large number of fresh crabs suspected of illegal poaching, and three freight vehicles were immediately seized and handed over to the Zhapo Fishery Administration Brigade for handling. According to statistics, these poached crabs include red crabs, flower crabs, three-eyed crabs, etc., a total of more than 3,000 pounds. Subsequently, the staff transported all the crabs to the waters near Mawei Island for release.
After the fishing moratorium began this year, in addition to stepping up the crackdown on illegal poaching at sea, the fishery administration and other departments on Hailing Island also joined hands with public security, industry and commerce, and other departments to investigate and deal with the illegal sale of illegally caught fish on land and cut off the sales chain.
Pan Zhicong of the Zhapo Fishery Administration Brigade said: In the next step, our brigade will continue to join hands with border defense, public security, and other departments to jointly deal with fishing goods suspected of being sold and transported illegally during the fishing moratorium period in the market, and severely crack down on such illegal acts.
