Cantoria march draws media attention

The march held last week in Cantoria was attended by more than three hundred people and drew wide media interest. It was held to draw attention to the situation in Cantoria where around 23 homes have a threat of demolition hanging over them and to the situation in the rest of the Almanzora valley area where planning irregularities have left many home owners in precarious situations. The marchers carried banners with slogans such as 'Justice Please', ' we are innocent victims' and 'a good government should protect the innocent' and their circuit of the town took them past the town hall where they delivered a petition to the mayor asking for the restoration of basic services to those homes without in the area. The march was reported sympathetically in the provincial and national press.
