PANAMA -
Insecurity is one of the
main problems the
Panamanian society is
facing nowadays, worried
about the increase of
very serious crime all
over the country.
Details from the
Criminal Statistics
Integrated System, cited
by Panama America
newspaper, register 211
homicides from last May
to August this current
year.
That figure represents
an increase of 61 cases
(27.4 percent), compared
with equal period in
2007.
For specialists one of
the difficulties to face
this scourge is the fact
that the National Police
structure has remained
equal since 1960, among
others.
In this context, it is
also necessary more
training and equipping
for the public force
aimed at facing
delinquency. |
