On Saturday morning, four bundles of hashish were discovered at the small Es Caló d'en Pellicer beach in Santa Ponsa. They were under a catamaran that had been pushed onto the beach by waves on Friday. One of the bundles had the word 'sugar' on it.

The law has no control Charles and not long ago were paid by La Paca to turn a blind eye. This is just a drop in the ocean compared to what is on the streets or grown locally.
Three separate stories in MDB this weekend concerning drugs being smuggled to the island. Law enforcement seems to be on top of the situation but of course we don't know about the shipments that get through and out onto the streets. With the youth tourism market there's a big buyers group here for the drug sellers and this is where a plain clothes operation would work well. Make the sellers fearful of approaching tourists because they can't be sure who is a genuine tourist and who is undercover police and you'll soon close those distribution outlets.
