He pointed out that the items probably came from the highlands and would not have the respective legal documentation. Likewise, at first the merchants offered resistance to the intervention but later they understood that the sale of these products has been prohibited for a decade.

One arrested for resisting

A woman identified as Araceli Copaja Mamani (31) was arrested and taken to the Alto de Alianza police station for confronting the uniformed officers. The balls with the explosive devices were also taken to that unit.

Commander Pérez said that the merchants were also warned that the presence of these pyrotechnics also put their fair at risk since there are hundreds of raffia stalls, which, being a highly flammable material, could catch fire easily and quickly.
