Last week, very loud blasts of deafening petards were heard in the vicinity of the old people’s home, Casa Serena, in Buġibba. This happened on three occasions, two of which happened to be at midnight.
It seems these petards were let off from a private residence, obviously without a permit.
This is a great nuisance as it is frightening old people residing at Casa Serena, babies, tourists accommodated at nearly hotels and all other residents.
What can be done to stop this? Does a law exist in our country regulating such matters?
And if such a law exists, why is it not being enforced by the civil authorities and allowed to remain so blatantly ignored?
