The San Juan night celebration in Gandia has concluded with a total of 37 sanctions for drug consumption or possession and one for weapon possession, as reported by the National Police.

During the event, officers identified a total of 215 people in the beach area. To ensure compliance with regulations, the Local Security Board established a special operation involving nearly 40 Local Police officers, who worked in coordination with other security forces.
The deployment included technical resources such as drone units, canine teams, and quad patrols to strengthen surveillance along the coast and respond quickly to any incidents.
Furthermore, cleaning efforts were intensified to prepare the sand. A team of nearly 50 workers, supported by trucks, loaders, and tractors, carried out the necessary work to ensure the beaches were ready for bathers from early in the morning.
