Bora Bora,DC10 & Amnesia fined???

yeh thats why i am still wondering we know about the fines but they were supposed to been have paid today so that could be today i jus wana ahhhhhhhhh:?: :cry:
 
from the ibiza sun:

The fight against drugs took a turn yesterday when the head of the State Administration, Manuel Bar, announced the closure of three of the island's largest clubs due to repeated drug offences. The clubs are Amnesia, Bora-Bora and DC-10, the first two will be forced to close their doors for one month, while DC-10 will remain closed for two months. The three establishments were also all given fines of 6,000 euros each. The closures are a warning from Bar, that he will no longer tolerate the clubs lack of co-operation when it comes to the dealing and consumption of drugs.

Bar explained that there were many clubs on the island that took a very responsible view and took the necessary measures, offering an unprecedented level of co-operation with the authorities. He explained that he understood that it was a difficult problem, and that it could never be completely stopped. However he claimed that some of the clubs were turning a blind eye, and even facilitating the consumption of drugs. The closure orders will have immediate effect and will be actioned this week.

The news followed the opening nights of all the major discos on the island, which ended with eleven people being rushed to hospital suffering the results of the consumption of drugs. Police also made a total of thirty arrests in drug-related incidents. A delegate for the Govern Balear, Ramon Socias, said that the decision had been a final resort. He continued by saying that he did not want to criminalise the owners of the clubs, because they were not to blame. However there were several meetings held between the authorities and the clubs, and measures were agreed to try and curb the consumption of drugs within the establishments. However these particular clubs did not respond in an adequate fashion, and have therefore been punished.

That is an interesting comment... so in one sentence in the first paragraph, they say that the clubs were helping to sell the drugs, but here they say they are not at fault! :?

besides many who are punished, are also those who have booked and paid and finalised their holidays!
 
Jesus is this thread still running........what will happen will happen, there are plenty of other beach bars and clubs in ibiza to enjoy while these closures happen. Get over it :roll: !

I say this with an element of cheek as I would dearly miss Bora Bora if I were going out there in the next month but I'm not out there until the 19th July when by the sounds of it all will be resolved at my little beach bar :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: ! The other 2 I couldn't give a monkeys chuff about whether they were open or not :lol: :lol:
 
still no clear picture on the appeals that was from yday issued today and the decisions were today soooooo:?: we will have to wait

Golf article should be in an other topic...;)

sounds like it...ah well, amnesia were always money making b*stards anyway.

The other two don't deserve it tho :cry:

unless someone wants to translate the above articles into something else? 8O
 
so they closed down amnesia ? :D


I don't know why you are so happy about this.. :roll:

If you don't like Amnesia, thats fine... don't go...but for many people this is the highlight of their year.
Its pretty pathetic that you revel in other people's dissapointment! :roll:
 
yeh i no rub salt in the wounds cheers was gna b my highlight have to go and break the news to the troops now thought would be a hitch and we would be ok :(
 

roughly translates as:

Pacte progresista of the san town council and Green group made public announcements of support in the decision to close the 3 locations.

the mayor (previous one presumably) jose sala is criticised by the progresista party saying that the people felt the situation had become helpless with the excessiveness of drug use summer after summer

the opposition in san an said the closures wouldn't reduce the consumption of drugs but it would help give a more positive image as a tourist destination

the greens described the measure as necessary and that it isn't opposed to the clubs but that ................oh i can't be arsed. basically that the clubs need to buck their ideas up a bit and not let things be so lax
 
Golf article should be in an other topic...;)

I like the golf idea (being a golfer i would) but lets face it if this did go off and ibiza as a 'clubbing mecca' fell down, would it be so wrong? I mean all good things come to an end and at 20+ years its had a good innings!

For me its not a major issue as this year will be my final visit (in body but not in mind) due to marriage and the next stage of my life (cough cough.....kids!), but I do feel the youngsters out there who haven't experienced it (and never will like it used to be 'back in the day' :lol: )!
 
I don't know why you are so happy about this.. :roll:

its an open chat forum, surely people can have there own view whether be good or bad........half the people on here are probably being disappointed about something they have never even been to!
