Dori Peñas, councilor of the municipal group of IU-Green has complained that the local police take care to pursue vulnerable people trying to make a living and that, in turn, they are victims of organized mafias.
In particular he referred to the arrest of six people of Senegalese nationality who were engaged in peddling counterfeit items with famous brands.
Since the formation of the left do not defend at all illegality, but believe that the lines of action by the Department of Public Safety of the municipality should not be directed to pursue and harass victims policing that only pretend to live with a modicum of dignity but rather they should aim to capture these criminal gangs that oppress and harass vulnerable and needy as in the case of the six arrested persons.
Peñas has said that there are many unsolved issues in the municipality in which the police should use its efforts, such as the fight against trafficking and retail drug trafficking and the trafficking of women or the necessary coordination with social services serve the population at risk of social exclusion of depressed city neighborhoods.
According to the council, such arrests more pleased Councilwoman displaying public safety in the press release seized as a trophy to the citizens themselves, who do not look kindly on the persecution and harassment of people who need more help social that police grudge.
