Algaida reports the Quintos 2004 of Llucmajor to the Civil Guard for the "attack" on the town

AlgaidaThese days, while Llucmajor is celebrating the Santa Cándida festival, the town's 2004 Quintos (Quints) weren't content with insulting their town; they traveled to the neighboring town of Algaida to cause damage, leave debris, and hang banners and other writing.

That's why the mayor of Algaida, Margalida Fullana, has announced that "in light of these events, the chief of the local police has filed a formal complaint with the Civil Guard." Furthermore, "we have conveyed this concern to the mayor of Llucmajor and hope that she will act with institutional responsibility."

Finally, in a statement released by the City Council on social media, it states that "what happened is not a joke; it is an attack. And as a people, we cannot and will not tolerate it."

Thus, the Algaida City Council explains that we condemn:

• Sexist and degrading insults and other offensive writings against women.
• Vandalism on the facade of City Hall, with tape, barriers, and symbols.
• Damage to the CE Fútbol Algaida banner.
• The dangerous use of firecrackers and fireworks, putting safety at risk.
• The manipulation of street furniture and dirt on the streets.
• The unauthorized exposure of a private conversation between institutional officials.

Fullana explained that "the events that occurred in our municipality are absolutely intolerable. We're not talking about a joke or a misunderstood festive tradition. We're talking about sexist insults, institutional vandalism, and actions that jeopardize coexistence, safety, and dignity."

She adds that "we cannot allow the actions of a few to tarnish the image of a youth who, for the most part, act with respect, responsibility, and appreciation for the people. They cannot tarnish the image of an entire generation. But I also want to firmly state that whoever crosses all boundaries must accept the consequences."

Finally, the mayor explains that "Algaida is a town that loves celebration, but we will never allow hatred, sexism, or disrespect to have a place. As a people, we will not remain silent in the face of any aggression. We will always defend the values that define us: coexistence, respect, and dignity."

Llucmajor Town Hall

For its part, the Llucmajor City Council has issued a statement condemning the actions of its Quintos of 2004. Thus, the Llucmajor City Council expresses its solidarity with the Algaida residents and is available to clarify the events "to prevent similar situations from happening again." However, it rejects "any uncivil behavior or attitude that could disrupt the normal course of a popular festival or jeopardize coexistence and mutual respect between neighboring municipalities."

The Llucmajor City Council conveys "our respect and consideration for the people of Algaida and its institutions, with whom we share values of coexistence, civic spirit, and collective responsibility."

Finally, in reference to the Santa Cándida festivities that the municipality of Migjorn is celebrating these days, they remember that "festivities are spaces for sharing, enjoying, and strengthening the ties between people and communities. We are committed to a responsible, respectful youth committed to the values of coexistence and civic responsibility."

Clarifying the facts

The Llucmajor City Council will collaborate with the Algaida City Council "in whatever they deem appropriate, with the aim of clarifying the facts and preventing similar situations from recurring." "If the involvement of individuals linked to our municipality is confirmed, we will work with institutional respect and education to ensure that appropriate measures are taken within a framework of responsibility and awareness," he concludes.
