Binar 4 Fined
This morning we heard from the Spanish authorities that the Guinean government has sent a fax confirming the cargo of the Binar 4 was illegal and that also a fine has already been imposed and paid.The Spanish government.
The Spanish fisheries ministry will be announcing this during today - and apparently they will be praising the work we've done to draw attention to this issue. Also, all the fish that can be verified as Guinean will be held in a freezer until a decision made on its fate - here's hoping it gets shipped back to Guinea! Of course, it is hard to know where some of the fish comes - the pirates fish don't care where the fish comes from, so there isn't necessarily any reliable records.
