According to information handled by La Radio, 38 people were arrested in the Ninhue commune – Ñuble region – when they were caught carrying out clandestine cockfights, violating health provisions due to the pandemic.

In addition, it was found that some of them also mistreated the birds used in the activity.

The police action took place in a rural sector of the Ninhue commune, where about a hundred people were inside a shed located in one of the sites.

Upon realizing the presence of the Carabineros, several of them fled the scene. Despite this, Major Francisco Bustos, assured that 38 people were arrested, who were infringed with fines contemplated in article 318 of the Penal Code.

For the above, three of the detainees will go to detention control this Sunday.
