"The UGT union has raised an irresponsible alarmism about the possibility of terrorist attacks in Caravaca de la Cruz" (11/08/2017)

The Councilor for Security, Traffic and Emergencies, Pedro Antonio Muñoz, has denied the statements published in the press by the Federation of Public Services of the union UGT, and has expressed the discomfort of the government team of the City of Caravaca de la Cruz, for the Way of acting of a small number of agents who, without consulting with colleagues or union representatives, has sent to the media information that does not have the support of the majority of the members of the Local Police staff.

Muñoz said: "We believe that the statements made about the constant threat of attack in our town are very serious. First of all, I would like to reassure the residents of Caravaca and visitors that this is not supported by real or official data established by the Ministry of the Interior , Because our locality, like the rest of Spain, is in level 4 of security in coordination with the other bodies and forces of the State ", and added that" these agents have acted irresponsibly creating a false alarm , While doing a disservice to our municipality with this type of information biased and without any basis.

Regarding the intrusiveness of other groups, namely Civil Protection, the Councilor for Security, Traffic and Emergencies states that "it is flatly false, that local Police agents are replaced by volunteers, and the data show that their mission is always subordinate To professionals, focusing on prevention and information. "

According to Pedro Antonio Muñoz, the people of Caravaca have to thank Civil Protection for the 30 years that it has been collaborating altruistically in the majority of the events that are carried out, and as sample has highlighted the extensive operation of the Festivities of May, in which also The staff of the Local Police works in its entirety.

Regarding the situation of police vehicles, he has stated that all comply with the law, ie ITV, insurance, etc., something that previously did not happen.

"We have inherited some old vehicles that should have been changed several years ago, and it is one of the priorities of this council to renew the fleet, but the economic situation does not allow it."

As for large-capacity motorcycles, Muñoz has qualified, "is not that the councilman does not like, is that are not operational or efficient to perform services in the municipality, pending to acquire two new scooter-type motorcycles."

"In relation to uniforms, it is another legacy, because 6 years ago four groups were created, which used different uniformity, and the most important and discriminatory, with large labor and economic differences, fewer hours and more salary."

Muñoz said that one of the first measures adopted by this government team was to unify and match the entire workforce, that is, equal working conditions and salary.

Likewise, it has stated that the information on unipersonal patrols is false, since the annual quadrant of service is negotiated between the union representatives and the City Council and in no case are contemplated single-person services.

In reference to the lack of technical means that they allege, it is also false, since they have the same means as in other municipalities similar to Caravaca, bearing in mind that all agents of helmets, boots and 6 bulletproof vests have been acquired , Which will be expanded in coming years, as the existing ones were out of date.

Muñoz pointed out that last June shooting practices were carried out, which had not been carried out for several years and that training courses on updating regulations will also be carried out.

Pedro Antonio Muñoz concluded that "this Government Team is in continuous negotiation with the unions to improve the service. Therefore, it considers that the route used by several agents, and part of the UGT union, has not been adequate."
