A pangolin scale trafficker arrested with 50 kg of pangolin scales

A pangolin scale trafficker arrested with 50 kg of pangolin scales. Despite the link of pangolins with the Covid-19 pandemic, pangolin scales traffickers still calmly carry out their illegal trade. This woman was arrested in the East of the country with 50 kg of pangolin scales. She had been arrested several times by the gendarmerie and released without any charges brought against her. She activated a gang of several poachers who supplied her with the scales, which she sold in the capital city. She violently resisted arrest during the operation hoping her corrupt contacts at the gendarmerie that constantly release her following each arrest would come to her rescue.
