Fuel seizures in Portugal

Overview

In Alcochete, Portugal, the National Republican Guard (GNR) seized approximately 4,200 liters of fuel from a warehouse in the Setúbal district. Following a report regarding fuel containers at the site, authorities intervened and identified three individuals, aged 28 to 34, who were attempting to collect the fuel.

Because the individuals could not justify the origin or possession of the fuel, the GNR confiscated 210 full 20-liter jerrycans, 16 empty 20-liter jerrycans, and six 1,000-liter liquid tanks. Other equipment, including a light vehicle and pallet jacks, was also seized. The three individuals have been formally charged.
