As part of surveillance and control operations for street vending in the municipality, officers discovered a considerable quantity of melons and garlic in a vehicle, prepared for direct sale on public streets. The absence of a license and the inability to ensure proper conservation, traceability, and hygiene conditions led to the confiscation of the goods.
The seized merchandise will be subsequently destroyed. The vendor was fined for engaging in street vending without authorization, and appropriate administrative proceedings have been initiated.
The Local Police remind the public that selling food on public streets requires specific permits and adherence to established sanitary and food safety regulations.
This action is part of ongoing controls to ensure compliance with street vending regulations and protect consumers, particularly concerning food products for direct consumption. The Alaquàs Local Police will continue conducting checks to prevent irregular sales.
