| IU-Verdes spokesperson, Pedro Sosa, denounces that the riverbed, at the height of the San Diego bridge, has become a uncontrolled "water bottle" | The IU-V Municipal Spokesperson, Pedro Sosa, summoned the Lorca media this morning on the same riverbed of the Guadalentín River, just below the San Diego bridge that joins the main artery of the city (Avenida de Juan Carlos I) with Avenida Europa.
At just three specific points along the riverbed, separated by a few meters, Sosa has shown local journalists how thousands of containers of all kinds accumulate: beer bottles, wine cartons, beer and soft drink cans, bags, etc.
which, in the opinion of the left-wing councilor, are the product in the form of residue from the last bottles made in that place.Sosa affirms that after the insistence of IU and the plenary approval of several initiatives defended by his group in the last year and related to the cleanup of the urban area of ??the river, "at last we managed to clean the riverbed just a few weeks ago.
peel and remove the silt, mud and garbage accumulated in the small blue gutter that runs in that area through the central part of the riverbed ".
So, the councilor of IU-V abounds, "the hundreds and hundreds of bottles that litter the entire area today are barely a few weeks old and they come to constitute the most evident proof of the absolute lack of control of the bottles that exist in the same heart of the city of Lorca ".
A responsibility that Sosa attributes to the Councilor for Citizen Security."We are not talking about a hidden place in the Sierra de la Culebrina," says the Councilor, "we are talking about the fact that in the very center of the city, under a bridge that thousands and thousands of people and vehicles cross daily, they are having parties and meetings to consume alcohol ".
And that is past, it abounds in leftist mayor, "just at the worst moment of the health crisis that we are going through in our municipality.""Perhaps it would be necessary to consider closing the riverbed at night to make it difficult for practitioners of the bottle to access it," says Sosa, a social practice that is always negative and that "we must fight with leisure alternatives for young people" , but that, continues the Councilor, "in the current circumstances and to the extent that it acts as a vector for the spread of covid-19, it must be pursued and punished without regard."Sosa has once again criticized the inoperative and ineffective management that the CARM health authorities are doing at all levels and at all extremes of the pandemic in Lorca.
But the municipal management also leaves much to be desired and, therefore, has returned to demand that the Government of Lorca also comply with its obligations.
"The Mayor and the councilor responsible for the local police should exercise extreme compliance with individual and collective citizen obligations related to the transmission of the virus, in addition to insisting, with all the sanctioning measures that are necessary, Sosa concluded."
