Itar-Tass (Russia)
PETROPAVLOVSK-KAMCHATSKI, August 28 (Itar-Tass) -- Four fishing boats, suspected of illegal crab fishing off the coast of the Kamchatka Peninsula, have been escorted to the port of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatski and put on the roadstead in the Avachinsky Bay. “The inspection was started on Monday in connection with the violation of the rules by the boats,” Andrei Orlov, head of the public relations group of the North Eastern Frontier Guard Department of the FSB Coastal Guard Service told.
The Yamason Maru-61, Fukushiki Mary and Koishu Maru-2, which belong to the companies registered in Beliz, worked in the Russian waters under the flag of Cambodia. The Garus trawler of Russia, which belongs to a Sakhalin company, also engaged in fishing in that area. The flotilla was detected by the Vorovsky frontier-guard boat on August 23. They tried to escape and started moving in various directions. A plane of the Yelizovo Air Regiment of the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) helped the frontier guard to arrest the intruders.
It was established that the crews of the boats were made up of Russian citizens. The four boats had on board a total of 42 tons of Kamchatka crab, whose fishing is forbidden for the purpose of protecting the crab population.
On the same day the Bars frontier-guard boat arrested in the northern part of the Sea of Okhotsk the Takhkurand trawler of Russia, which illegally fished eight tons of Alaska Pollack. The trawler was escorted to the port of Magadan.
The representative of the North Eastern Frontier Guard Department pointed to the fact that too many fishing boats had been arrested by frontier guards for poaching in August. Some 15 trawlers and schooners are staying on the roadstead in the Avachinsky Bay, near the port of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatski, which violated the rules of fishing. All cases of the violation of the fishing legislation are being investigated.
