It was a squatting story with an unusual angle. A 21-year-old Spaniard moved into a luxury property in Palma's Son Vida and because there was no alarm system, he had one installed.

The squatter will appear in court at some point

Wow, really, the law actually did something. Oh right, they are rich.
Yes! Good! This squatters' rights thing needs a complete reset. Looks like there's progress.

Good to see the action taken. All home owners are at risk from squatters on the island and with current legislation they can't count on the authorities' support to re-possess their home.
