A missing person and a critical injury when drowning in the El Tancón cave

The mayor of Santiago del Teide, Emilio Navarro, has revealed this Monday that Bathers’ visits to the Tancón cave continue despite the last fatal accident that occurred there, last Thursday, and the announcement of the toughening of sanctions.

In statements to Cadena Cope, Navarro said that the day after a young man lost his life and three other people were rescued, one in critical condition, and when the Civil Guard I was investigating in the area, there were those who bypassed the seals or accessed by sea or other roads to this attractive but dangerous place.

And two days later, he added, this buffoon, where in the last four years five people have lost their lives, “I was full”.

The mayor has reported that it is It is common for visitors to ask merchants or businessmen in the area for the Tancón, because “it is not easy to find it”, and when those warn them that it is dangerous “they come to insult them.”

He believes that from the Santiago del Teide City Council “little more” can do, since the area is already signposted, with no-entry and drowning warnings and landslides, and now with the announced tougher sanctions if the Local police surprise bathers there.

Emilio Navarro has also pointed out that previously some doors that prevented the passage to the area when there was a forecast of bad seas, but that the General Directorate of Coasts prohibited them.

Instead, beacons are placed, but “People keep passing by, running an unnecessary risk in these natural and dangerous spaces”. “It is very difficult to have a policeman on every corner,” wielded the mayor, who called for “social responsibility”.

“We do not want to create fear, is that there is imminent danger“says the mayor of Santiago del Teide, who has attributed the fame of El Tancón to social networks.
