During the local market in Pilar de la Horadada last Sunday, the Local Police removed several second-hand items that lacked an identifiable owner. According to municipal sources, these items were displayed without anyone being able to prove their provenance or ownership at the time of the intervention. The police action followed the usual safety and control protocols, which mandate the preventive removal of any material that is not properly identified for subsequent custody and inspection.

The police stress that this measure is both preventive and organisational, aimed at ensuring that all products displayed in the market meet minimum traceability requirements. They highlighted the importance of having all items for sale properly controlled and linked to a responsible party, particularly at public events where second-hand goods are handled.

Authorities have also issued a call for citizen and seller collaboration in adhering to market rules. This not only helps to prevent potential incidents or misunderstandings but also promotes the smooth conduct of these widely supported commercial activities within the local community.

The local market will continue to be held as usual, with an emphasis on the importance of respecting established rules to maintain both safety and confidence among exhibitors and visitors.
