This is what the government and Tourism are turning Madeira into. I don’t even know why the man is here, if he is not working and clearly on drugs, should be sent back to his country.
Landlords should also check their properties, as there are many cases of large numbers of Nepalese and others in 1 or 2 bedroom apartments.
A young woman from Madeira reports, on her TikTok account, that she was harassed and followed by an immigrant on the streets of Funchal.
In the video, you can see the young woman and the man on Rua 5 de Outubro. She shouts in English for him to leave her alone and go away.
She also warns that she is filming and as she moves away from the heckler, he continues to insult her from a distance.
In a second video, the young woman explains what happened and that “a few meters later” she was, again, harassed by another man: “I hope you know that the island of Madeira is not as safe as it seems, a few meters later I was harassed by another man, luckily I found friends and told them what had happened and they kept watch waiting for me to reach my destination.”
“The first man is from Nepal, I realized he is from Nepal because when I watched the video I was able to identify insults in their native language, the second is from Madeira and in the second situation I just walked faster and was happy to find friendly people who were watching the second situation”, she adds.
Video contains strong language.
