Man Following Group Of Girls At Golden Bay Removed From Beach By Police
A man who was spotted following a group of girls around a popular Maltese beach was reported, and removed from the beach under police supervision.
The man, who was previously involved in a case involving claims of harassment, was noticed by members from the HPF Rangers Unit, who contacted Qawra District Police for assistance.
“Malta Police sent two officers from Qawra Police within 10 minutes and monitored the man until police arrived to make sure the girls were safe,” the rangers said after the incident.
“The man was asked to leave the beach accompanied by the officers. The girls were advised to be aware of their surroundings as well as always alert an adult in case they feel uncomfortable.”
The rangers thanked officers for their prompt action.
The Heritage Parks Federation (HPF) was founded by environmental NGOs Din L-Art Ħelwa, the Gaia Foundation, and Nature Trust Malta, back in 2008 following the inauguration of the Majjistral Nature and History Park when the management of the park was passed on to the Federation.
Throughout the years, Majjjstral Park has had rangers to care for the daily upkeep of the parks and its ongoing projects such as maintenance, afforestation, and various educational activities.
In 2021, a ranger was employed to patrol and make sure that site regulations were followed within the park borders. Soon after, the HPF Ranger Unit was launched as a way to extend the uptake area for the patrolling rangers.
The ranger unit doesn’t only just patrol the Majjjstral Park but also covers the areas that fall under Nature Trust Malta and Din L-Art Helwa such as Chadwick Lakes, Pembroke Natura2000, Red Tower, and White Tower among many others.
