The Balluta Residents’ Association is calling for more police patrols to put an end to the rising trend of “shabby” graffiti daubed across their town.

“This has become a problem now. Even though the council is working on it and has removed a lot of the vandalism, we need to stop it from happening again.”

The association’s 200 members confirmed that at least 11 residences were sprayed with ‘tags’ in the Ta’ Ġiorni area this summer.
