When the Village Square Is No Longer Safe: Drugs in the Center of Artà

Answer

How can Mallorca prevent drug dealing from returning to the same public spaces?

Preventing repeat activity usually means more than one-off raids. In Mallorca, and in places like Artà, that can include targeted investigations, stronger control of vulnerable premises, better municipal management and support for young people. If the wider conditions stay the same, the same spaces can quickly become problematic again.
