Crime / S’Albufera / Index for August 2006

And then there is violent crime. A British youth staying in Puerto Alcúdia is apparently in a coma after getting into a fight with some other Brits. I don’t know if there are any crossed wires here, but if not and it is therefore a separate incident, I was told this morning that a girl was beaten up in the Bellevue vicinity last night.


All is seemingly not well at S’Albufera. According to an environmental group, the nature park is suffering from “progressive decline”. There has been no director in situ since April, there is no promotion of the park and there are inadequate technical staff. All of this is rather a pity, especially as the Targeta Verde Magazine, from the Balearics Foundation for Sustainable Development makes such a noise about S’Albufera in its summer edition.
