Panamanian Forces: Operations Against Crime
PANAMA - The operation Green December
operated by the Panamanian police to ensure
security in this time of year reflects as
the main result the weapons seizure and the
detention of fugitives from justice.
National Police managers recalled that
Special Forces troops are involved in these
actions in surveillance works in points
where great deal of money and business is
appreciated.
In the opening balance sheet it was
mentioned the retention of a dozen illegal
immigrants and the dismantling of a
clandestine laboratory dedicated to document
forgery.
For this operation, the police have all
their forces and support from entities like
the State Border Service and Air Station.
The issue of insecurity is one of the major
concerns of the population taking into
account the increase in serious crimes such
as homicides.
Statistics from the Judicial Investigation
Department showed that up to November 26
there have been 687 killings across the
country which overcomes in 24 cases the
records for all of 2008. |
