Organiser of illegal rave banned from Exmoor National Park for a year
Mixmag, the organiser of two illegal raves in the national park – on June 25 and July 2 this year – has been banned from the area for 12 months under a Community Protection Warning (CPW).Sergeant Max Priestley said: “Issuing the Community Protection Warning with the support of our Antisocial Behaviour Team is a great success, made possible by our collaborative response to these illegal events.”Priestley went on to praise local resident Jennifer Duke, who alerted authorities to the raves. He said: “Jennifer and local residents like her are our essential eyes and ears to provide evidence after events and – ideally – intelligence before they happen so we can stop them before they start.”A report from Somerset Live says that if the individual breaches the ban, they could face arrest and jail time.Police have now enforced locals to patrol the area during the summer months.
