Another intervention by the authorities has been recorded in Karaburun, where IKMT and police demolished a structure built without a permit in Shën Jan Bay. According to the official version, it was a wooden structure serving a bar and restaurant, while during the operation one person suspected of having built it was also detained.
Intervention in the protected area
According to the authorities, the operation took place in the protected area of Karaburun, where checks for illegal construction have been reported for days. The target of the intervention was a wooden structure placed in Shën Jan Bay.
The demolition was carried out by IKMT in cooperation with the State Police, in an operation attended by local and central police and inspectorate officials.
What the authorities claim
The official version says the structure had been built illegally and was being used as a bar-restaurant. At this stage, no other details have been made public about when the structure was erected or how it had been operating in this sensitive area.
It remains unclear whether there had previously been inspections, reports or institutional tolerance regarding the construction in question, a point that often raises questions in such delayed operations.
One person detained during the operation
During the intervention, police escorted and detained one person suspected of being responsible for the illegal construction. The authorities have not yet released his identity or full details about his procedural status.
According to the official notice, further checks will be carried out to determine legal responsibilities and the full circumstances of the case.
The operation in Shën Jan comes as part of increased scrutiny of illegal construction along the coastline and in protected areas, where institutional intervention often occurs only after structures have already been built.
Beyond the official notices, it remains essential to clarify institutional responsibility for the effective allowing of such interventions in one of the most sensitive areas of the coastline.
