The Local Police in Mijas have opened proceedings against a man for depositing appliances and other items into a container allocated for organic waste and he could face a fine of up to 750 euros.
The man was spotted at 16:30 – outside the local permitted hours for depositing rubbish – putting all sorts of inappropriate rubbish in a container not labelled for such debris and the police officers explained the situation to him. He now faces a hefty fine of up to 750 euros for what is designated a ‘minor’ offence.
In Mijas, the municipal ordinance stipulates that rubbish can only be deposited in the containers between 20:00 and 00:00.
