Nola - Over 56.000 liters of diesel fuel, untaxed and without the necessary taxes, were seized by the Guardia di Finanza of the Naples Provincial Command in an operation in Marigliano.
The action, which is part of increased controls against illicit trafficking, also led to the seizure of two vehicles, a tanker, and the reporting of two people.
The raid by the Nola Group's military personnel began with a targeted check of a tarpaulined semi-trailer with Romanian license plates, which was suspiciously parked in a private parking area.
An inspection of the vehicle immediately revealed an abnormal load: 28.

At the end of the operations, the Yellow Flames Both the driver of the semi-trailer and the legal representative of the Italian company that owned the tanker have filed reports with the Nola Public Prosecutor's Office. The alleged charges include receiving stolen goods and violating excise tax regulations.
