BASCO, Batanes — Fourteen Chinese and six Indonesian nationals will be arraigned here on Monday for alleged violations of the Fisheries Code of 1998 and the Anti-Illegal Logging Act.

Eight of the foreigners were arrested on board FB Aneka 218 which was intercepted last April 29 off North Island in Itbayat town.

The rest, who were aboard FB Mibin Yee Bin, were rounded up on the coast of Ditarem Island, some of them cutting down a protected hardwood. — Jack Castaño III
