Arrested a fishing boat carrying 9 VMS devices from another boat

At approximately 4:00 AM on October 17th, the Coast Guard Region 4 forces inspected fishing vessel CM 08710 - TS, captained by Mr. TVS, 37 years old, residing in Tan An commune, Ngoc Hien district, Ca Mau province . They discovered the vessel was transporting 9 tracking devices belonging to other fishing vessels. At the time of inspection, the captain presented all relevant documents for the fishing vessel and his captain's certificate. However, transporting tracking devices from other fishing vessels without permission is a violation of the law. Therefore, the Coast Guard Region 4 forces drew up a report and brought the vessel and its captain to the port of Squadron 421 in Nam Can town, Nam Can district, for further investigation and processing.

According to initial verification results, the fishing vessel CM 08710 - TS is owned by Mr. D.D.N, 53 years old, residing in Rach Goc town, Ngoc Hien district. Mr. N. leased the vessel to Mr. TVS (for a period of 3 months) under a handwritten contract dated September 6, 2024. According to Mr. N., the purpose of leasing the vessel was for Mr. S. to engage in crab fishing, and he was unaware that the vessel was transporting tracking devices belonging to other fishing vessels. The case is currently being investigated and processed by the authorities in Ngoc Hien district in accordance with the law.
