Venzy Viegas today exposed illegal clearing and sand-dune destruction carried out by a JCB owned and operated for Warren Alemao on the Zalor\u2013Fatrade border.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The work was done without any work order or official permission and when AAP activists reached the site and called district officials and the police. They were manhandled and aggressively charged at by goons linked to the Alemao family. AAP immediately contacted the DGP, Collector, Mamledar and other senior officials \u2014 and persuaded officials to stop the JCB before it left the Benaulim border.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The JCB was not confiscated on the spot. Instead, police were deployed with the assurance that the machine would be officially seized on Monday. Shockingly, the same JCB was released late that night. The release of this JCB was done after calls from senior BJP leader Damu Naik \u2014 or even direct intervention from CM Pramod Sawant. This sequence of events shows clear political interference and protection.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-107298\" src=\"https:\/\/goakhabar-com.preview.jikut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/10.11.2025.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"281\" \/><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">MLA Capt.
