Apparently it was a simple sheepfold, but in reality inside were hidden weapons and ammunition possessed illegally. With three camera traps in operation, positioned to monitor the property and monitor any unwanted access. Today's operation in Gonnosfanadiga led to the arrest of a 36-year-old shepherd, now in prison in Uta for illegal possession of ammunition and weapon parts.
The carabinieri of the local station intervened, within the vast campaign of territorial control throughout the province. Once they reached the sheepfold, the soldiers noticed the particularly tense and agitated attitude of the thirty-six-year-old , who had already been the recipient - since last September - of a measure prohibiting the possession of weapons. His reaction led the carabinieri to start a thorough search, assuming there was something hidden.
The thorough check, both inside the sheepfold and in the dining room and milking room, led to the discovery of a considerable quantity of weapons and ammunition held without authorization. In total, the seizure involved 51 rounds of buckshot, 2 rounds of shot, a leather cartridge belt containing an additional 25 rounds of buckshot and 20 rounds of shot . In addition, various components attributable to a Benelli rifle were found.
Investigations are continuing to clarify the origin and destination of the material seized today in Gonnosfanadiga, as well as to verify any links with other illicit activities.
