    Hi folks,
Just wondered if peration Malaya, the corruption scandal affecting most of Spain including the Balearics and Canaries, has had any effect on people, most particularly those buying in Almeria province.
Do you know of any areas under investigation or any developments that have been orderd to be demolished?
I'm slightly worried especially about the ruling regarding population increases being capped at 30% of 2002 figures, Vera, for instance, being capped at 30,000. I have read that Vera is one of the areas under investigation along with Los Gallardos and others.
There are an awful lot of people being arrested for corrupt activity and this could affect 1,000's of homes - even some that have been built for years. People have bought what they thought were legally built homes only to find that the permissions were never granted from the Junta in Andalucia, only corrupt local permissions.
There is hope, though, in the ruling regarding the Centro Comercial in Roquetas, a judge has overturned a previous court order to demolish it - in Marbella they have not ben so lucky yet and there are reports of some 850 developments with demolition orders on them.
Any more, local, info would be most useful.

Hi Noelwilma Just read your post & iread a quote on another post recently which named 6 town halls (Mojacar included ) for investigation ,but excluded Vera.

We are supposed to complete on Dec 31 on Los Olivos Huerta Nueva ,Los Gallardos &this is the first time on any of the numerous posts on numerous threads, that Los Gallardos has been mentioned re. illegalities.Where did you read this?

Would be grateful if you could reply.

Best wishes Haydn & Judy.
