Paul Le Jean was asked by this person to pay a charge to use the toilets, as he claimed he was a cleaner of the premises and that was how he was paid, but when Mr Le Jean refused to pay, he continued to press for money, even following him inside the toilet block.
Even after asking him to leave him alone several times, the alleged cleaner continued to demand payment, until finally giving up and returning outside.
Mr Le Jean said: “The more I think about it the more annoyed I get, like I said they did not intimidate me specifically, but they would do to other people.
“The police noted it down and hoped more witnesses would report this. We need to keep Guernsey as it is and there is no room for this behaviour.”

Several commenters said they also witnessed the group’s behaviour, and were also asked for money to use the toilets.
Guernsey Police have said officers are investigating the matter, and there are “ongoing enquiries.” If anyone witnessed the group asking for money, or was approached by them, they are asked to contact the police station to help identify them.
“If anyone experienced anything then they should get in touch with us to help identify the people. You can call the police station on 01481 725111.”
The kiosk itself is fitted with CCTV cameras which cover the entrance to the toilets.
