Slavko and Gavrilo Šišević were detained today in the operation of the Border Navigation Unit of the Police Administration for catching fish with the help of generators, announced the Public Enterprise for National Parks of Montenegro (JPNPCG).
The announcement adds that since catching fish with the help of electricity is considered a criminal offense, Šišević was handed over to the Basic State Prosecutor's Office for further proceedings.
"The Šiševićs were found at the location of the Kažića deed, and the police confiscated from them the equipment and tools used for illegal fishing," the JPNPCG press release states.
It is also stated that in addition to this case, Đonaj Đoka and Toni Junčaj from Tuzi were caught in illegal activities today in cooperation with the Freshwater Fisheries Inspection and the Border Navigation Unit.
"Misdemeanor charges were filed against them, because they caught fish without the necessary permits for commercial fishing and with unmarked nets. Supervisors of the Skadar Lake NP Protection Service temporarily confiscated a metal boat, an outboard motor, 24 nets and other equipment from them," the JPNPCG press release says. .
From that company they said that they are particularly satisfied with raising the level of protection of the Skadar Lake National Park (NP) through intensive and good cooperation with the Freshwater Fisheries Inspection and the Police Department.
"We hope that with joint activities in the coming period, we will put an end to this harmful phenomenon that threatens the biodiversity of Skadar Lake NP and brings harm to honest fishermen and all those who link their lives and jobs to this park," the announcement concludes.
