“No Talk” – Crackdown on Gangs in San Miguelito Will Continue

 

The Minister of Public Security, Juan Pino, said on Friday, February 10, that the crackdown will continue to stop the wave of homicides that have been registered at the beginning of this year among gangs, especially in the district of San Miguelito.

“We had a problem in San Miguelito and I admit it. We are going to push, as we know how to push, ”he said.

Pino pointed out that these crimes occurred due to a criminal breach and a drug fight. “This cannot happen again in San Miguelito,” he said.

For this reason, in recent days they have carried out operations together with the Public Ministry. They even reinforced security with personnel from the National Border Service (Senafront) and the National Aeronaval Service (Senan).

So far in 2023, 55 homicides have been committed in the country, mostly linked to drug trafficking.

“We are not going to take care of criminals or talk to them, but to reinforce the repression. We are going after them, ”he warned.

According to the minister, the completion of the installation of cameras in the San Miguelito district is expected by the end of March, a program that will help combat crime in the sector.
