3 ivory traffickers arrested with 5.3 kg of ivory
Senegal, 10 Feb 2016
This time it is SALF team hitting the illegal ivory trade! 3 ivory traffickers were arrested in the centre of Dakar, Senegal, in a joint operation of the Brigade of Urban Security and SALF. The 3 dealers brought their contraband from their carved Ivory workshop to a restaurant, where they were arrested red handed during an attempt to sell 271 (!) pieces of elephant ivory. Great job of Charlotte and Cecile and their team!
More investigations continue on the links of the Ivory center to other criminals.
