PalmaMadò Farta reports that the Santanyí Local Police forced her to remove her mask and identify herself while she was protesting in front of a delegation of political officials, including the town's mayor. According to her account, she had encountered the political representatives and remained by their side for a while as they talked about her, which is why she claims she felt uncomfortable.
In this regard, the character who has been denouncing mass tourism for months asserts that, during the intervention, the officers informed her that they had found posters of hers stuck in different parts of the town, a fact that Madò Farta has denied. "I have not placed any posters, they have accused me without evidence," she says.
For its part, sources from the Santanyí City Council maintain that the police action did not lead to any arrests or sanctions, but only to the identification of the person. The council adds that this intervention occurred following the appearance of several posters stuck in different locations around the town. "Madò Farta or her followers have stuck posters with glue on house facades, street furniture, and a listed building," city council sources pointed out.
They state that residents alerted them to these events and the Local Police identified her. However, the council maintains that, given her refusal to remove her mask in front of hundreds of people, they allowed her to do so inside the police car.
The City Council also states that reports have been filed for the damage caused by the posters stuck directly onto stone facades. For the moment, according to municipal information, seven posters have been counted on facades and two on street furniture. Finally, the council considers that these acts cannot be permitted because they have damaged facades and furniture.
