This man was driving a Mistral-type Nissan van, with BBE 416 plate. According to the police report, he could not justify the origin of the meat.
The agents learned of it thanks to a phone call from a person named Javier Dos Santos who reported that a clandestine slaughter had possibly occurred in a cattle ranch called “Montuoso”, located at kilometer 5 of the old route of the fourth route.
