Interior The police unions believe that the Government leaves them "sold" for not supporting the causes for attacks on authority
Rains, it pours. In full complaints from the police unions for the null support they receive in the interventions, the Mossos d'Esquadra are investigating the aggression suffered by a patrol this past dawn in the Ciutat Vella district of Barcelona when they intervened in a fight between two groups. The officers were surrounded by dozens of people who began to insult and assault them by kicking and punching them until they were thrown to the ground. There, one of them tried to take away his regulation weapon.
The rapid intervention of other police units prevented greater evils and the agents could be transferred to a hospital center to be treated for polyconusions. The Mossos report that they are well. It is the third consecutive weekend that police officers have suffered attacks and assaults in Barcelona. The weekend of La Mercè there were serious clashes during a macro-bottle and days later there were serious attacks in the Sarrià festivities.
According to the unions of the Mossos and local police, this situation of violence towards the security forces has been repeated throughout the summer, coinciding with the festivities in the public thoroughfare, for which they have asked the political representatives for support to be able to impose order in the streets and allow to act in the face of violent behavior. Police union sources complain that they are urged to hold on when they are thrown objects or containers are burned while vandals punish police lines.
They consider that this "worrying" loss of respect for authority later has repercussions on the services they do, such as the one at the Gótico last morning, which killed dozens of people who attacked a patrol that treated a wounded man at the doors of a bar. they wanted to remove the weapon. "One day it will end badly. Tired of warning of attacks, this sinks," said Fepol spokesman Toni Castejón on the networks while from the SME union he assured that it was an "intolerable" aggression and added: "We insist again, rulers, politicians, judicial bodies ... apply ". They also asked for "respect" and the speedy recovery of the injured.
Precisely, the police unions met yesterday with the Minister of the Interior, Joan Ignasi Elena, and other members of the department to whom they demanded "facts and not words" in addition to defending the actions of the agents. The representatives of SAP-FEPOL, USPAC-USCOP, SPC, SME, CAT-ME, SEIME-FEPOL, SICME, AFITCME and SEI, together with local police unions such as SICPOL, SFP-FEPOL, SAPPL, SAPOL, CSIF and the association APME demanded from the Interior more recognition of the police work and that they "cease to be used politically for the convenience of each party", at the same time that they warned them of the "lack of respect" that they believe exists towards the police.
The unions have requested a meeting with President Pere Aragonès and are holding their demonstration on October 23 in Barcelona to ask for job improvements and support, such as the Catalan administration appearing in the causes of attacks on authority against agents, a situation which ERC and JxCat refuse to do.
