Reference number RP No. 121/Parquet, Greffe No. 086 du 12/06/2013 Language French Subject Wild species & ecosystems Abstract An NGO has drawn the attention of the Central Interpol office of the presence in the Court of the Grand Hotel Casino of 8 crocodiles that are fully protected species. One of the NGO’s agents pretended to be a buyer. The accused (the seller) was arrested and said that the crocodiles belonged to his boss but that he took care of them.

The State joined a civil action to the proceedings.(Source: www.wildlex.org) Full text Guinea 8.pdf
