The socialist councilor, Juan Vicente Larrosa, has stated that "it is an absolute incongruity that Mr. Ballesta uses the pretext of the cable robberies to eliminate the illumination of the bike path of the river, when he knows perfectly well that the real problem is the old one: The lack of security in this and other areas of Murcia. "

"It is not the first time that the government of the PP uses the pretext of vandalism to withdraw the services that correspond to the population, as we denounced when Bicycles were removed from Muybici in the area of ​​Atalayas, continues Larrosa.

"From the Municipal Socialist Group we will not tire to claim, because we believe that it is our obligation as an opposition, that the municipality of Murcia has a significant shortfall of Local Police agents that will not be able to cover even from afar, with the call Of 21 agents "added the Socialist mayor.

Larrosa has explained that the staff of the Local Police of Murcia has aged in recent years, have lost jobs for retirement and "is absolutely insufficient for a municipality of the size and population of Murcia."

In addition, "from the PSOE we demand to Ballesta to stop tricks like bringing policemen from other towns or patching with the complement of Day Reinforcement that allows each agent to do 150 extra hours per year, which is fine, but still Insufficient "added the socialist councilor.

What Murcia really needs is to expand the Local Police Corps, something that would have been remedied if there had been more frequent calls for opposition, since they have not been called since 2008, "said Juan Vicente Larrosa.

As indicated by the Socialist mayor, "the nefarious Law Montoro PP that does not increase the rate of replacement of civil servants now has these consequences that result in the security of citizenship."

Likewise, "the elimination of the lighting that Mr. Ballesta has removed from the twelve kilometers between the Malecón and the Mota del Río can have worse consequences, since if the neighbors decide to continue using that route despite the darkness, they can be given Situations of insecurity with important consequences, "Larrosa said.

And in this sense, the socialist councilor proposes to reconsider another type of lighting without cables, more ecological and cheaper in the long run, such as street lamps with solar energy.
