Google News PT — Crime reports the arrest of ten men suspected of transporting fuel to a vessel linked to trafficking, according to Sul Informação.

Authorities identified and arrested the suspects as part of an operation targeting the logistical supply of trafficking networks that use maritime vessels.

The transport of fuel is considered an essential element for the operation of these networks, allowing vessels to undertake prolonged journeys without resorting to conventional ports subject to inspection.
