Police in Panama seized more than six tonnes of shark fins bound for Asia on Thursday , arresting five people in connection to the illegal trade, authorities said.
Attorney General Javier Caraballo told a press conference that most of the seized fins"were already dehydrated and ready to be exported". Shark fin soup is viewed as a delicacy in East Asia, often eaten at weddings and expensive banquets. It is also believed in some countries, including China and Japan, to slow ageing, improve appetite, aid memory and stimulate sexual desire.
Police also seized a pistol with an expired permit and bank transfer documentation during the operation, and discovered a storage and packaging centre used in the fin trade.
