The Guardia Civil has arrested a 52-year-old man in Sant Josep, Ibiza, who is suspected of fraudulently selling fake entry wristbands for DC-10 nightclub. The incident took place on the night of August 18, when Guardia Civil officers were called to intervene in an argument involving several people.
After arriving at the scene, officers spoke to those involved and established that the dispute was allegedly linked to the sale of counterfeit wristbands for entry to the well-known Ibiza nightclub.
According to information provided by the Guardia Civil, one of the people involved had previously contacted the man who has now been arrested to purchase several wristbands. The wristbands were allegedly being offered for €350 each. Suspecting that they were not genuine, the buyer contacted a member of the nightclub’s maintenance staff, who confirmed that the wristbands being offered did not match the original entry wristbands.
Following the necessary checks, officers found three suspected fake wristbands among the man’s belongings. They later discovered another 44 nightclub entry wristbands hidden inside his vehicle.
The 52-year-old was arrested on suspicion of fraud and was subsequently placed at the disposal of the judicial authorities.
