CÓRDOBA.- The concepts presented by the Governor of Córdoba caused surprise. Martin Llaryora, in an act of incorporation of 244 soldiers of the Armed Forces into the Anti-Drug Police (FPA). “I don’t do drugs, drugs don’t finance us. It goes into depth, there are no half measures. We don’t want drug trafficking to come to Córdoba,” emphasized the president.
The phrase was interpreted as a response to the criticism he usually receives from anonymous people on social networks.
During the event, Llaryora spoke to the new officials and emphasized that their inclusion in the FPA was not a product of chance, but rather a strategic definition of the provincial state: “Today they are here as a result of a political decision to defend our society.”
“We will continue to defend, invest and train them. They are part of an elite force with a university education of the highest level, unique in South America,” he said.
The governor of Cordoba, a member of the United Provinces, criticized the local opposition for not supporting the creation of the FPA, which depends on the Public Prosecutor’s Office. “No one accompanied us, they voted against us. That’s why.” I would like to ask you to justify your actions on the street“Of the courage that we must act against everyone to reach this moment,” he added in his speech.
“We are committed to the fight against drug trafficking just as you are, it is the only government.” It’s thorough, it’s not half measures, we don’t want the drug trade to come to Córdoba and every drug trafficker, at home and abroad, must know that Córdoba is hostile to drug trafficking,” concluded the governor.
He also explained that the expansion of specialized jurisdiction had led to a doubling of the number of prosecutors, “allowing for better investigations and more resources, but that was not enough if there was not a force that could accompany these investigations to combat organized crime.”
The integration of the 244 Bundeswehr employees corresponds to almost half of the personnel that the PFA already had. The measure was made possible by a change in the law that allowed former military personnel to be trained by the Provincial University of Córdoba. The province also ordered the delivery of new cell phones and the opening of a new operational headquarters.
The training was carried out by the Provincial University of Córdobain coordination with the Prosecutor’s Office, and represents an unprecedented experience in the country. The officers took part in a tour of the Institute for Technological and Productive Management and Innovation (IGTP), where legal, operational, social and human rights content was applied to the investigation of complex crimes.
