Guatemala Bolsters Security on Mexico Border
GUATEMALA - The presence of
Guatemalan security forces have increased in
border zones with Mexico, where locals had
lost confidence on the police.
Ongoing operations, part of the so called
2009 Territorial Recovery Plans, will allow
re-establishing contact with people in those
areas, who will help improve the anti-crime
battle by providing information.
Government Minister Raul Velasquez made
known that objective, after he supervised
actions by the National Civil Police.
The plan includes the departments of San
Marcos, Huehuetenango, and Quetzaltenango,
bordering Mexico. Surveillance in those
areas includes patrolling, car searches,
identification of people, and inspections in
commercial establishments, it was officially
informed. |
