Mayor threatens exemplary sanctions for illegal party

Llorenç Gelabert also announced that exemplary sanctions will be issued against the promoters and attendees who allegedly violated several ordinances.

"The party was a public scandal and the City Council will act forcefully so that this does not happen again," said Gelabert. "The party was illegal, they did not have permission to celebrate it and they also tried to deceive the City Council by asking for permission to celebrate a wedding."

PP Spokesperson, Violeta Rodríguez, has asked the Government "take responsibility for not having expressly denied the request for that party, which the Governing Board was aware of on June 30."

She also accused the Government Team of not doing enough, saying “they could have asked the court to confiscate the musical equipment; the party lasted more than 12 hours."

Around 200 people attended the party which was held on private property and lasted from 2200 on Saturday night until 0800 on Sunday morning, with DJ’s playing loud music and no health and safety measures in place.
