The Border Police conducted inspections in the Delicias district of the canton of Upala, border with Nicaragua, where it found that the stone post known as the landmark that defines the boundary between the two countries is in its original location.
The visit came after the authorities received several complaints, accusing the neighboring country of moving the cairn to subtract Costa Rican territory.
This is the landmark in the Delicias district, in which the officers verified the coordinates N 10 ° 58’59.1″ – W 085 ° 00`53.7 and confirmed that the landmark is located where it was historically fixed,”
said the press department of the Ministry of Public Security.
Border officials also conducted several routes through other sectors where no anomaly was reported.
