The professional association Justice for the Civil Guard (Jucil) criticized this Saturday that, “one month after the murder of two civil guards” in the port of Barbate (Cádiz) hit by a narcolancha, “nothing has changed; “The drug trafficker still roams the Andalusian coast and attacks barracks.”
This has been denounced by the professional association of civil guards in a note in which, in addition, it has regretted that until now “no parliamentary political group has taken the banner of proposing a investigation commission that determines in Parliament the political responsibilities for the inaction that is observed in the face of the advance of the mafias that control the passage of narcotics and immigrants without permission from Africa.
The general secretary of Jucil, Ernesto Vilariño, has asserted that “some political groups should not be allowed to attempt to normalize the cruel murder of the civil guards hiding behind the fact that it was a work accident.
«It has been a month since the murder of our colleagues David Perez y Miguel Angel Gonzalez at the hands of some drug traffickers who ran over with their speedboat the small boat in which these civil guards and four other companions were trying to identify them in the port of Barbate. «A month and nothing has changed“, Ernesto Vilariño has criticized.
The general secretary of Jucil has added in this line that «Neither the Minister of the Interior nor the general director of the Civil Guard have had the slightest intentionnot just resigning, we see that not even for those reasons, at least the intention to do somethingto reinforce, promote, advance and lead the fight against drug trafficking and migrant smuggling in the Strait of Gibraltar.
«One month and inaction is the only relevant one from those responsible for the Interior“, that “they are not even capable of making their positions available, so that others, with more drive, can carry out the work and for which two civil guards have lost their lives,” added the Jucil representative. .
Likewise, Ernesto Vilariño has stated that «Society and the political class must not allow some groups to try to normalize the murder of two civil guards., hiding behind the fact that it is a work accident. “To trivialize this type of comments with semantic slippages means allowing the loss of the principle of authority to be justified, supporting the negligence of some politicians and the deterioration of the work done by each member of the body,” he denounced along those lines.
Likewise, Jucil has warned that “the inaction of those responsible for the Interior, who express the impression of being stunned by what happened and not knowing what to do, contrasts with the increase in the activity of drug traffickers, who in the latter “For four weeks they have been protagonists almost daily in the news spaces.”
“No one is unaware that the drug boats have appeared sheltered from the storm in different ports and bays on the Andalusian coast,” as has also been indicated by Jucil, from where, in this regard, they have explained that, at the beginning of March, in the Genoveses beach in Almería “A dozen of these boats could be seen.”
«Even more serious has been the new attempt to assault on the Barbate Civil Guard barracks“, only three days after we sent a request from Jucil to the colonel of this command so that no civil guard is responsible alone for guarding the doors of the facilities,” Vilariño said.
The same Jucil representative has asserted that “the feeling of impunity “and the breach of the principle of authority is such that they no longer hesitate to seriously threaten the civil guards in their own barracks.”
«We have reiterated that the entire Campo de Gibraltar and the area of influence of the Strait must be declared a Special Singularity Zonebecause without incentives we fear that the next transfer competition could mean a gigantic flight of civil guards to other destinations,” the general secretary of Jucil also predicted.
Two other civil guards injured
According to Jucil, Two other civil guards, in this case from Chiclana (Cádiz), were injured on March 6 in a pursuit of drug traffickers and, despite their injuries, in one of the serious cases, they managed to identify seven of those accused of drug trafficking.
“The effort that the civil guards put into their work as servants of public order and protectors of citizens’ rights has no response in the Administration,” said Ernesto Vilariño, who once again stressed that ” the entire Andalusian coast needs a reorganization of Civil Guard positionsan expansion of the templates that are still governed by an outdated catalog that is more than 20 years old and that is clearly surpassed by circumstances.
«And we need again the formation of a specific body focused on the fight against drug trafficking, as was the case that was terminated OCON Onof which almost two years after its drastic disappearance, we still do not know the reasons for it,” as Vilariño concluded.
