The popular highlight the effectiveness of this measure to stop the feeling of impunity that citizens have denounced after finding their vehicles scratched or other material damage for not giving in to the blackmail of these individuals.

The Councilor for Citizen Security in the City of Lorca, María Belén Pérez, has reported that there are many Lorca who have long demanded that we act decisively against the gorrillas, since, sometimes, they are in situations really unpleasant, feeling violent and intimidated by these subjects.

There is a remarkable sense of helplessness among citizens who do not understand how it is possible that legal or regulatory mechanisms that defend them to avoid such incidents are not articulated, and that, in addition, grant to the State security forces and bodies and to our Local Police, the possibility of stopping these behaviors in a more forceful way.

We are faced with some eventualities to which we have always worked since the Popular Party to find tools that support a more effective response.

In fact, already in the current Ordinance for the Protection of Citizen Coexistence and Prevention of Antisocial Behaviors, approved in February 2010, the possibility of intervening in a preventive manner and protecting the money derived from these behaviors was included in article 39, and was subject to of the beginning of the disciplinary procedure.

We have to remember that the aforementioned article expressly stated that “the agents of the authority will withdraw or intervene cautiously the gender or elements object of the infraction or that serve, directly or indirectly, for their commission, as well as the money, fruits or products obtained with the offending activity �.

María Belén Pérez has affirmed that it is now, after the update of the national regulations, that there is definitive support at the legal level to be able to execute the aforementioned confiscation.

In fact we have the close and concrete example of the City of Murcia, which has already been updated by carrying out a draft ordinance that will allow the agents of the authority to intervene and cautiously apprehend the instruments used for the commission of the infraction, as well as money, fruits or products directly obtained, which will be kept in the deposits established for that purpose or in the custody of the Security Forces and Bodies while the sanctioning procedure is being processed.

From the PP they have explained that numerous citizens have transferred us that their scratched cars have been found on occasion, as well as other types of material damages, for not wanting to yield to the requests of the gorrillas, which feed on the feeling of impunity to repeat Again and again these attitudes.

That is why we Lorca have the opportunity to take advantage of the new resources offered by the Law to effectively combat these attitudes.

Thus, we propose that the City Council proceed immediately to introduce in the Ordinance in force this novelty, or, if necessary, undertake the drafting of a new text that incorporates both this and other possibilities along the same line.
