great white Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 It looks like the fines add up to less than 10% of the value of the scam. What happened to the other 90%? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duncan Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 It looks like the fines add up to less than 10% of the value of the scam. What happened to the other 90%? this is only the skippers not sure it matters as I will bet these sums won't be recoverable! and then on course the costs of the case will exceed the value of the scam too... call me a cynic but the criminals will still be quids in and the fish stocks will have suffered the loss.
