translated from Spanish: PS criticizes general Mario Rozas for situations of violence in Pudahuel

The Socialist Party (PS) today criticized the general of Carabineros, Mario Rozas, for the situations of violence that have unchanged in the commune of Pudahuel. Likewise, for the same reason, they placed the Minister of the Interior, Gonzalo Blumel. “The responsibility of the managing general, Mario Rozas, is inescapable. It has not been able to lead the institution of Carabineros of Chile with the standards of respect for the human rights of a democracy, and in the commune of Pudahuel, in particular, they have been responsible for two abuses and have gassed the ancestors of the neighbors , among other disproportionate conduct,” they noted in a statement. They also gave their support to the mayor of Pudahuel, Johnny Carrasco, who expressed his displeasure at the police action in his commune, who accuses that the procedures have not been correct. According to the PS, Carrasco has only “demanded, from day one, that law enforcement direct their efforts to combat criminals and not to repress neighbors and neighbors taking part in peaceful demonstrations.” In the document, the PS also criticizes the Minister of the Interior, Gonzalo Blumel, who after Carrasco’s statements called for “the mayors to be at the side of the neighbors who want to live in peace.” The statements of the Minister of the Interior, Gonzalo Blumel, regarding the demands of various mayors for the security situation in their communes, constitute only a provocation to evade and transfer the responsibility of the Government of ensure security and social peace,” the PS said.
