Stephen PerrimanThe laws and punishments being applied are Spanish national ones. This doesn’t mean to say that some judges are more lenient than others. When Franco, who had been tough on crime, died and Spain became a democracy, many people, especially the socialist party thought that being more lenient would make a break with the past and be more inclusive. I’m sure most thiefs and squatters would agree.
Any info with respect to where possibly this lovely chap has been banished too would be great to know that ! This is unfortunately not at all funny , Hello !!!
This thief should be deported back to Morocco permanently, the justice system in Majorca is far too soft. He wouldn’t steal in Saudi Arabia would he !
That'll do the trick, he sure won't steal now. Doh!
Many dysfunctional facets of law enforcement in Mallorca is present and prominent in this story. A continual criminal who is known by the police. Despite complaints it continues unchecked. Eventually the police arrest him. He gets a minor slap on the wrist despite having a suspended prison sentence. Banned from Alcúdia? That’s adding some truly terrible icing on an already rotten cake. The crims have it easy here and they know it.
What sort of a punishment is " BANISHED" ? Surely a Prison Sentance is warranted for this Thief.!!!
