Below follows a joint statement on the progress of the EU-UK Agreement in respect of Gibraltar:
European Commission Executive Vice-President Maroš Šefčovič, Spanish Foreign Minister José Manuel Albares and UK Foreign Secretary David Cameron, together with the Chief Minister of Gibraltar Fabian Picardo met in Brussels on Friday 12 April.
In the afternoon of Wednesday 16 October 2013 officers of the RGP Drug Squad stopped for the purpose of searching under the Crimes Act(Drugs Misuse) Edson CAETANO d.o.b. 06/11/80 of Castle Road. On being searched approximately 2.5 grams of Herbal Cannabis was found he was therefore arrested on suspicion of being in Possession of a Controlled Drug.
A search warrant was then executed at CAETANO’s residence where a further amount of Herbal Cannabis, a small piece of Cannabis Resin and items associated with the supply of drugs were found.
The GSD party condemns what it calls “extremist elements within the GSLP party machinery” who, they claim, mimic the very behaviour the Spanish Government stands accused of by “denigrating, threatening and insulting” the Leader of the Opposition for having dared express criticism of the Chief Minister’s recent statements before the UN in New York.
His Worship the Mayor Anthony Lima will be travelling to London at the weekend to participate in different events organised as part of the celebrations for this year’s Gibraltar Day in London.
