The 'fortification' of Mallorca's drugs supermarket
Will the police mount 24/7 controls?
Some weeks ago, the drugs clans in the Palma shanty town of Son Banya created a form of fortification. This comprised wire fencing and wooden panels. With police cover, the town hall sent in workers to dismantle all this. There hadn't been planning permission, though the more important issue was why it had been created. A key reason was to hinder the police.

Pathetic Spanish police. Happy to stop uninsured drivers at Bendinat roundabout, but do nothing about drug dealers. Third world country i'm afraid.
The police never do anything and will never do anything about it as it costs too much.
As seen in Venezuela and other South American countries where lawlessness is part of everyday life. But in Mallorca? Something is very badly wrong here.
I see the 'round the clock' police presence lasted a long time. Probably an hour for the TV cameras and paparazzi photos with the mayor then it's normal service resumed. Palma council/the Balearic government are a joke.
