Intensified controls have been implemented at the ports of Ischia and Procida to monitor tourist flows and arrivals on the islands. Among the cases that have emerged, the Carabinieri have arrested Daniele Pompeo, 38, a Neapolitan man already known to law enforcement.
The man was stopped at the hydrofoil landing stage in the port of Forio. When asked by the police, he presented a valid travel ID, which turned out to be a fake. The document listed a residence on the island of Ischia, believed to be a ploy to obtain the discounted fares offered by shipping companies to island residents.
After the investigations, the 38-year-old was arrested and escorted to the San Lorenzo neighborhood, where he was placed under house arrest pending trial.

The man, a 47-year-old Albanian citizen, was stopped and reported.

It seems to me that port checks are necessary to avoid problems. But arresting people for false documents is fair; illegal activities are not allowed. Let's hope tourists respect the rules.
