This is the kinda stuff you hear about in bad part´s of place´s with thriving DRUG TRADE and large criminal Gangs Sadly Mallorca has become also one of these place´s people arriving at a bar with baseball bat´s and iron Bars real Mafia style techniques being used these are not your average I phone theif we heard about rings of steel and cranking up on Gang´s , guess there are some hole´s in that ring , Gomilla has always been hard core area with high prostitution and Drugs readily available it could be classified as a Dodgy area , difficult issues to solve as police reduction´s occur at this time of year and Criminal activity increases .
There have always been a lot of dodgy 'after hours' bars in the Gomila area.
The reports coming out of MDB that involve violence against persons are shocking and greatly alarming. If you didn't know that these incidents are in the small minority you'd be scared to set foot on the island. Even so, just one violent attack or robbery is one too many and clearly something must be done.
Seems like law and order spiralling out of control in Majorca. Best the authorities get it sorted pronto or there really will be lots fewer tourists next year!
