The judicial police brigade in Dakhla thwarted, Monday morning, an attempt of illegal emigration from the fishing port of “Lassarga”, located 7 km from the city’s beach.

The police intervention and the search operation carried out as part of this case resulted in the arrest of three people for their alleged links with this criminal network, involved in the organization of this illegal migration operation, said a press release from the National Police (DGSN).

Nine candidates for illegal emigration of Moroccan nationality were also arrested during this operation, during which an small fishing boat with an engine, as well as a trailer and 25 liters of fuel were seized, added the same source. 

The organizers of this operation, three people aged between 29 and 35, were remanded in custody as part of the preliminary investigation conducted under the supervision of the competent public prosecutor’s office to identify all the people involved in this criminal network, as well as its possible ramifications nationally and internationally.
