Cars have allegedly been abandoned in the car park next to Checkers Xpresss at Cobo

FURTHER controversy over Cobo car park emerged last night.

It was alleged by parish officials at the Castel electors and ratepayers meeting that cars are being deliberately dumped in the parking area next to Checkers Xpress. Douzenier Dave Chester said there were 10 abandoned cars in the parking area next to the store, which is operated by Sandpiper.

‘It has been alleged that one person has been asked to park the cars there,’ he said. ‘The police have indicated that all 10 are owned by one individual but that person cannot be identified due to data protection laws. If anybody has information on this unreasonable individual, the douzaine and constables of the parish would be most grateful.’

If any individual is free to dump his cars or other rubbish where he likes,for whatever reason, then goodbye justice,a good time for a new government to sort this out!

Surely the police can move them somewhere more suitable and the owner can pick them up from there – seems cars are now being substituted for the previous boulders!

No prizes for guessing the culprit…
