Bora Bora,DC10 & Amnesia fined???

sorry but can someone pls explaing wtf is going on in ibiza???have the local authorities gone mad???doing this at the beggining of june will surely effect their tourism's numbers and will surely destroy what island is about for most of us...clubbing:evil:
 
:cry: i m really sad,really really really really sad...bora bora was one of my preferate place in ibiza ... dc 10 and amnesia are amazing place too ...

but white isle I LOVE YOU!
 
the Spanish old bill have to be seen to be doing something (asides from taking bribes off dealers that is)8O:lol:
 
It doesn't make sense because amnesia hasn't even opened yet right???
Good point... official opening is June 16.

Unless they've had one-offs or a soft opening beforehand.

I'd be most upset if Bora Bora were closed... I love just sitting there listening to the tunes on afternoons when we're too lazy to travel to another beach :( (even aside from days when we join the fun up near the bar)

I will love if they shut down amnesia :D
 
While I wouldn't be thrilled to see DC10 or Amnesia closed, I'm sure the promoters that host nights in those clubs would come up with alternate events in other venues... force majeur would probably be invoked in any contracts they have.

*IF*this is going to happen.. maybe they will pay their fines int he next week or so

The promoters wont do there parties in any other club. Amnesia wont let them they have contracts already.
Unless Amnesia losses Cream and Cocoon , but that wont happen
 
well, yeah like I said, I really don't know how they can get away with just not having Amnesia open for a month..and some supposed other club too which may shut down.

I wonder if its just a scare tactic, but will open anyway next week... or whenever it opens

Diario de Ibiza said:
La Dirección Insular de la Administración del Estado en las Pitiüses ha cursado orden de cierre para la discoteca Amnesia (un mes a partir del próximo martes) y los locales de ocio nocturno Bora Bora y DC10 (uno y dos meses, respectivamente, a contar desde el próximo lunes), en aplicación de sendos expedientes abiertos entre 2005 y 2006 por tolerar el consumo o venta de droga en el interior de los establecimientos. Además, cada local deberá hacer frente a una multa de 6.000 euros. Las tres órdenes de cierre son firmes y deben ser ejecutadas de inmediato, aunque pueden ser recurridas ante los tribunales de lo contencioso-administrativo.

The local government has ordered the closing of the discoteque Amnesia (for one month from next Tuesday) and nightclubs Bora Bora and DC10 (one month and two months, respectively, from next Monday) due to complaints lodged between 2005 and 2006 for tolerating the consumption and sale of drugs inside these establishments. Furthermore, each venue has to pay a fine of 6000 euros. The three closure orders are firm and should be executed immediately although they can be appealed.

(very quick translation so apologies for slight linguistic inaccuracies)

The timing sucks eggs. I hope their lawyers are working overtime on an appeal!
 
morbs - mackie is a guaranteed (have i spelt that right?;):lol:) no show in this thread
Wrong! Thanks for the link, Big Mac.

Here's a Google translation of the full article. (My work on the first paragraph wasn't too far off 8))

The Insular Direction of the Administration of the State in the Pitiüses has attended order of closing for the discoteca Amnesia (a month as of the next Tuesday) and the premises of nocturnal leisure Bora Bora and DC10 (one and two months, respectively, to count from the next Monday), in application of individual investigations initiated between 2005 and 2006 to tolerate the consumption or sale of drug inside the establishments. In addition, each premises will have to face a fine of 6,000 euros. The three orders of closing are firm and must immediately be executed, although they can be resorted before the courts of the contentious-administrative thing.

Eivissa | C. Navarro/S. Parra
“Tolerance zero with drugs”. The closing of the three establishments obeys to the interest of the Government, and by extension of the Delegation in Balears and the Insular Direction pitiusa, in “increasing to the pressure” on the sale and the consumption of narcotic substances in Eivissa during the months of summer, an activity that causes “chaos situations” and “a very harmful image” for the tourism, indicated sources of the Department of the Interior.
Three sanctions of closing, that can more be since other files in transaction by reasons exist such, are consequence of denunciations made by the Civil Guard during both last summers. These procedures are “extremely” garantistas and thus, in other zones of the country, a sanction by the same causes would entail a prolonged order of closing more. However, from Interior they remember that the damage that can cause the closing in Eivissa of the premises of these characteristics during a month, “is equivalent to a year in any other part” due to the volume of business that is registered in the island.
In addition, from Interior they clarified that the gravity of the sanctions “is limited” because they do not exist preceding of closing of discotecas by these reasons and because “we are conscious that the industry of the nocturnal leisure is very important for the islands”. In any case, the closing of these three establishments demonstrates that “there will be no tolerance” and that the application of the law will become “without contemplations”, noticed the same sources.
The denunciations are consequence of performances of the Civil Guard inside the premises, where they observed the consumption or the sale of drugs (as much the breach of the closing schedules as of decrees of noises they are competition of the city councils).
The same sources indicated that the transaction of these files extends during months; after the seizure of the drug and its later analysis, incoa the mandatory file, that if it finishes in sanction can be resorted after the reception of the charge sheet and the presentation of allegations. Finally, the sanctioned establishment can present/display an administrative contentious resource.
With the firm sanction, the establishment is five to make cash the closing count from the reception of the order, independently of which it presents/displays an administrative contentious resource. In this case, as much to the Bora Bora as to the DC10 Tuesday communicated to them the past the sanction, reason why they will have to close this Sunday, mientra that the people in charge of Amnesia received the communication Wednesday, reason why no longer will be able to open until the next month of July.

Impossible control
The decision made by the Insular Direction has caused malaise between the people in charge of the affected premises. In the case of the Bora Bora, sources of the company considered that the made decision is “unjust” and that a level of monitoring impossible is demanded to the premises to assume.
“If somebody wants to consume drugs are going to control the security personnel, identified clearly, and it will do it when these cannot see it. The Police and the Civil Guard act of countryman and is when they discover them. We cannot do that nor can put to a watchman by each client”, considered the same sources.
“Measures against us are taken but the certain thing is that drugs, unfortunately, are consumed in all premises of leisure, here and in Guadalajara. He is something that the young people have very rooted. Before, when you left, you amused tomándote glasses solely, now also they consume drugs”, they added.
On the other hand, from Amnesia it was yesterday avoided to comment in depth the decision although it was not doubted in labeling the resolution as the Administration like “policy”. Today it is predicted that the discoteca of Sant Rafel emits a note of press written up with the attendance of its lawyers in whom the happened thing will be valued.
This newspaper tried yesterday, without success, to successfully obtain the opinion of some person in charge of room DC-10.

you're right Morbyd... hope those lawyers can do something.. I just think of all the DJ's meant to play there over the next two months. Even though I won't be out there until after that.. I can't imagine if it will affect the later dates.

Hey I guess I will be there for the opening party in August then!:lol:

I don't understand the article... but is it saying they arrested 450 people?When was this I thought the opening party wasn't until next week..same with bora bora and dc10?
 
It's for infractions in 2005-2006.

These things take some time to go through the system, I suppose.

hmnnn... I wonder if those lawyers will get through it... they are right a month of closure is like a full year in other businesses time
