Arrested Jailed & Searched For Drugs | Welcome To Tarrafal Do Santiago Cabo Verde | S7 Epsd 13

Sailor Alex recounts his experience of being arrested in Tarrafal de Santiago, Cabo Verde, under circumstances he claim were misunderstood. Three months prior, they traveled from Tarrafal Cabo Verde to Dakar Senegal intending to repair his boat engine. After completing repairs, Alex had to leave Senegal by October 22 due to visa restrictions. He decided to sail to Cabo Verde for a brief trip to pick up his friend Wendy before embarking on an African journey with her. He brought three crew members on the journey. Two French world travelers and a Japanese cycling around Africa. On their arrival in Cabo Verde, local authorities insisted they must report to Praia for a formal check-in. Despite being assured by the local officials about the legality of their departure from Senegal, they were confronted by police who accused them of illegal entry and exit without proper documentation. The narrator tried to clarify their situation, showing valid stamps on their passports, but faced resistance from the police. Tensions escalated when the police refused to allow Sailor Alex to return to his boat to rest and recuperate from the tree day journey from Senegal. Frustrated and feeling unjustly treated, Sailor Alex attempted to leave the police presence, which led to a physical altercation. The police subsequently arrested him for resisting arrest, resulting in further distress and injury by putting him in jail for 24 hours until police were issued a search warrant to search his boat Ultimately, the police found nothing and Sailor Alex reflects on the unfolding events and the perception of injustice as he navigates the complex legal landscape in a foreign country. 00:00 Intro 00:17 Found what they needed 01:45 I go to jail 02:43 Got the search warrant 03:46 What are they looking for? 05:31 I'm a YouTuber not a narco 06:57 Where are they taking me? 08:04 Afraid to be free 09:16 Now what? 10:51 Next week Some say it’s The Best Sailing Channel on YouTube!
