On December 14, Ninh Chau Commune Police (Quang Tri Province) said that they had just caught red-handed an illegal sand mining case on Kien Giang River.
Previously, during a patrol on the Kien Giang River, the working group discovered an aluminum wooden boat anchored in the river section of Phu Ninh village, Ninh Chau commune. Checking the vehicle, the authorities discovered that the hold contained about 5m3 of new sand exploited from the riverbed.
Through quick verification, the above sand was exploited by Ms. V.T.K.Q (born in 1977, residing in Dac Thang village, Ninh Chau commune). At the time of inspection, Ms. Q could not present documents proving the legal origin of the sand.
Ninh Chau Commune Police have drawn up a record of the incident, temporarily detained the boat and all the illegally exploited sand to consolidate the records and handle it according to the law.
