The head of the marine police in Riau, Zainal Paliwang, explained that wood in various sizes has been seized from three boats that routinely operate the waters of Kampung Pacul in the district of Bengkalis.
"We have done a search and found that the wood did not have the proper documentation," said Zainal. He explained that the wood of various varieties were taken from the Surat Akar forests in Bengkalis. All the wood has been seized because it is evidence in a case of illegal logging.
