Congo, 10 Oct 2023
A trafficker arrested with an elephant tusk cut into 6 pieces. He was arrested during an attempt to sell the ivory. He is linked to an ivory trafficker arrested in September and sentenced to two years in prison. He arrived at the scene of transaction in a taxi, carrying a multicolour shopping bag in which the tusks were concealed. He visibly was in haste and tried to pull off the deal as fast as possible.
