A team from Polis Litoral Ria Formosa landed on Culatra early this morning, along with 40 Maritime Policemen in case there was any trouble in seizing 22 island properties prior to their demolition.
Of the properties due to have their walls daubed with numbers, signifying possession by the State, only eight legally could be processed as Loulé court had accepted embargos lodged by 14 property owners.
