Ryazan police caught poachers, illegally fishing net

In the Shatsky district of the Ryazan region, police stopped fishing with a net in the Tsne River. This was reported in the press service of the regional MIA.

Law enforcement officers circled the water area of the river near the village of Yambirino – where previously poachers have already used illegal fishing methods. Police found a net in the water.

The operatives organized a hidden observation point on the shore.

Soon two men approached the network. The police detained them when they took out illegal gear, which turned out to be empty.

A 66-year-old and 43-year-old local residents were involved in poaching.

A criminal case has been opened against the men. They face up to five years in prison.
