After being presented to court, four were remanded in custody (one awaiting extradition to France) and the other two were subject to expiration of identity and residence.
The modus operandi of this European group, known as “The Tar Gang”, consisted in providing paving services at a reduced cost, with excess tar from previous works, and only charging the value of labour.
