- "They have put a blindfold on their eyes and will say anything before admitting that they were wrong voting against our Plan for the Protection of Coexistence and Neighborhood Safety and supporting a Strategic Plan that has not worked," laments the spokesman for Cs Cartagena, Manuel Padín
- The Socialist Government has not responded for months to the complaints of the Local Police itself for the deterioration of the equipment, the breach of the minimum services, and the delays to deliver the traffic accident reports
On the occasion of neighborhood complaints about the increase in robberies in homes, assaults with a knife on public roads, illegal occupation, or the sale of narco-drugs in Los Nietos, and after the demands detected by unions and police sources for the deterioration of equipment and lack of personnel, Citizens presented at the last regular session a battery of questions for the PSOE Government to explain what they plan to do to resolve this situation.
Regarding the occupation and narco-ops, the PSOE councilor, Manuel Mora, disfigured Citizens the terminology used to refer to the phenomenon of violent occupation because they prefer the legal concept of "occupation with force in things" and evaded the answer making a balance of all the police actions against robberies and the sale of drugs in Cartagena since 2017. "Nothing that Mr. Mora said has to do with our questions, we do not doubt the effort of our security forces despite of its personnel shortage, more was missing, than we doubt is the management of this socialist government, so that with this evasive we have to assume that neither have, nor want a plan to end the narco-records in Los Nietos, or against illegal violent occupations and against the problems of coexistence that this generates in our neighbors, "said Manuel Padín who clarifies that" our questions are political and seek re
political exposures: draining the package towards the Civil Guard, or the National and Local Police, seems to us a lack of respect ".
The PSOE even denied the largest, that Cartagena suffered the phenomenon of violent occupation and dared to downplay the narco-records that have been detected in Los Nietos, "I do not know in what municipality the PSOE lives, but it is not Cartagena" says Padín.
"In Madrid or Murcia and many other large cities, has been approved with the support of the PSOE and PP our proposal to create an Office for the Defense of Neighbors, with a Monitoring Unit against occupations and the development of a housing census occupied, but in Cartagena, "the PSOE has put a blindfold and say anything before admitting that they were wrong voting against our Plan for the Protection of Coexistence and Neighborhood Safety."
On his future performances in Las Seiscientas, the PSOE has acknowledged that they only work to increase social intervention and that there is no specific plan despite what has been published in the press.
They do not respond to complaints about the chaos in the Local Police
As for the questions about the deficiencies in the Local Police denounced by the UGT union, the PSOE refused to answer in the Plenary and informed that it would do so in writing.
"We must put an end to the regression in citizen security that we have suffered in the last three years;
The Government excuses the situation by speaking of lack of agents but has been unable to comply with the Strategic Plan that was presented, does not call the places for Local Police exams, ceases to cover with solvency such important events as the Carthaginians and Romans celebrations, and they neglect the situation of the markets in which the manteros impose their law.
The PSOE of Cartagena is demonstrating that it does not have the capacity to make important decisions ", said Manuel Padín.
Cs denounces that the PSOE has not even been able to answer the questions in the Plenary.
The orange training requested explanations at the last regular plenary session on the complaints that have arisen within the police staff that has reported the delay for the mandatory review of breathalyzers, with the consequent risk of judicial challenge, delays of up to half a year for deliver the copies of traffic accident reports, the breach of the minimum services, the deficiencies in the communication system that obliges the police to communicate with their personal cell phones ... "Very serious matters that have not merited a single explanation on the part of this Government since they were reported more than a month ago;
neither respond to the media nor respond in the Plenary Hall when it is their obligation ", complains Padín.
