The above fishing boat owners mainly violated Clause 1 and Clause 3, Article 27 of Decree 42/2019/ND-CP when illegally abandoning fishing gear in natural waters or abandoning fishing gear to obstruct legal fishing activities of individuals and organizations in coastal waters. However, due to mitigating circumstances and the fishermen's first violation, the delegation only imposed the minimum fine.
