An illegal car repair shop in the urban centre of Tortosa, Baix Ebre, has been shut down by authorities. The operation involved officers from SEPRONA, the environmental protection service of the Guardia Civil, and the Local Police of Tortosa.

The clandestine workshop was operating without the necessary licences and permits, according to officials. Its closure addresses concerns about unregulated businesses within the city's residential areas.

Joint Police Operation

The joint effort by the Guardia Civil and Local Police highlights ongoing efforts to ensure businesses comply with local regulations and environmental standards. The specific details of the infractions leading to the closure were not immediately released, however, such operations typically target establishments that pose risks to public safety or the environment due to improper waste disposal or lack of safety measures.

The authorities continue to monitor the area for similar unauthorised operations. Further actions may follow as investigations continue into the workshop's activities and any potential associated issues.
