Santa Ponsa police #?

    Off-topic, but my little brother was just robbed out in Majorca (Santa Ponsa) by a local scumbag from my town who I used to be friends with. They took 2.5k on my brother and his friends and now my brother and his friends are stuck in Majorca without ANY money for a week. No food, nothing. My brother is only 18. He saved up for months in work, just so he could go away with his friends this summer. For some scumbag to steal his money which was hard-earned is absolutely disgusting and I'm fuming.

    I need to get a contact number for the Santa Ponsa police. I called the Majorca national police but they didn't speak English. They gave me another number to call, but they don't speak english either.

    I just need to get in contact with the police in Santa Ponsa. I can't get through to my brother's phone so naturally, I'm worried about him and want to make sure he is ok. I will have to wire him out money, so I need to speak to him.

    Anyone who can help me, I'd be greatly appreciated.

    John.

    get him to go see his rep and she/he will give him the number, so if he doesnt want to do that , the police station there is on the beach , well theres a little hut there think its open till 7 in the evening.

    if he is stuck for money , if he booked it in an agency, you can go in there (to the agency)and give them money and they will transfer it over to the rep to give to them , it takes 24hours to transfer over.

    terrible story, but he needs to get a police report done himself and the rep to sign it to

    They took it from the safe. They didn't mug him for it. Thanks for the help guys. I'm cracking up here. Theres nothing more annoying than some kid working his head off for months to get away with his friends and then some scumbag stealing it.

    if they took it from the safe and it was locked, and the police do nothing about it , they can try and claim it back form the insurance. That **** man though seriously get him to go see the rep/police asap, there isnt really much you can do from this side tbh

    have a chat with the guards here as well, cant do any harm. approach the scumbags family here if its not going to put you in a dodge situation. buy a crossbow


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,759 ✭✭✭✭dlofnep


    Thanks appreciated, I'm in hillview. I texted my brother to ring my house phone so we can find out more info. I told him on the phone to contact the police. My text delivered so hopefully he will call soon.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 276 ✭✭July


    This may be no help at all considering it happened in Spain but, I wonder would it be of any use to contact the Gardai? They may even be able to provide a phone number (long shot I know).

    What about phoning the scumbag's parents? Just to make it known to them.. Though, they're probably responsible for how the little f**ker has turned out so probably couldn't care less.

    Edit: ^^ longshanks, great minds..

    Called them already, they said they can't do anything cos it didn't occur in Ireland. They weren't really helpful at all.

    Ah, they are well aware of his long history. His poor mother has been through enough, I don't want to ring her worrying her. She's a nice woman and doesn't deserve to be involved. The guy who did it is an adult now, so she's not responsible.

    Ok so

    But if you do need her to translate , Let me know and i'll contact her.

    Ok thanks Rockman, appreciated!

    I would involve her. May sound harsh but she had a major part in how the little **** turned out.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,759 ✭✭✭✭dlofnep


    Ah no - she did her best. Parents split up when he was young, so she didn't have a male authority in her house to sort him out. Anyways.. I don't want to go into the personal details about his mother. Sometimes, people are bad people because they are bad people.

    The guy rang me cos I texted him and told him to return the money or I'm going to come over to Majorca. He knows that it wouldn't be in his best interests if I catch up with him. He said he didn't take it. I told him to go up to my brother and get him to call my mother. My brother wouldn't say he stole it unless he did. The guy is a known thief and was in my brother's apartment. He's filth. If I put a lie detector on him, I'd bet my life on it he'd fail. I'm still waiting for my brother to call so I can sort out some money through Western Union for him.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,759 ✭✭✭✭dlofnep


    Ok, just a bit more info. My mother was speaking to the mother of one of the other boys on holidays with my brother. That youngfella said that a maid let in two guys into the apartment (assuming it's the two guys originally in question) because they said they were locked out.

    I would assume this would put the hotel at fault as the maid should not have left in two people who were not staying in the apartment?

    +1 best people to call I'd say.

    Hope the scumbag gets what's coming to him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,375 ✭✭✭source


    Get your brother to talk to the local police, ASAP, I was in santa ponsa a few weeks ago and the place is literally crawling with police, also he should report it to the rep, and the hotel manager, insurance may not cover it as for the little sh1te to get into the safe when there was nobody there, it'd have to be open.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,759 ✭✭✭✭dlofnep


    My brother just called there. He spoke to the manager, the rep and police. He needs to go back to the police tomorrow morning. His friend has his bank card with him, so we're all putting money on the card for them all to take out from. Right now, my brother and his friends don't have one cent for food. I'm fuming.

    Santa Ponsa is a small place. He won't be hard to find. And if he escapes back to Ireland avoiding the spanish police, he'll wish he's been arrested. He knows full well what I will do to him if I catch him.

    In fairness you have no proof it was the accused fellow do you? There's nothing you can do really unless there is CCTV or something of the accused going into the hotel
