Seriousness Gibraltar

Has anyone of you been recently in Gibraltar? If yes, did you have any issues/problems with the police or justice? What kind of experiences did you make with the police/justice?
Thank you very much for any comments.

We have members who live there. I was there in 2007. Why are you asking?

Because, for my work, I just now have to translate a text about a case of police abuse in a police station in Gibraltar. I found it quite shocking and wanted to know if this was a single case and an exception or if other people have made bad experiences with the police in Gibraltar, too.

Wherever there are people in power, there will be people that will abuse that power. But that doesn't mean all people in power will abuse their power... It it always the actions of a minority that will spoil it for the majority (sadly)

We were obviously tourists and had no contact with the cops. PM member Gibbo and see if he is still checking in. But you know, resort town cops usually overlook a lot before stepping in. Just my opinion.

Have you been there? It is so weird to be in sunnye olde Englande in the Med. Loved it!

Unfortunately never, but it is on my list! I love monkeys!
