Morelia, Michoacán.- Elements of the Michoacán Police are three days of continuous demonstrations due to the delay of a month and a half in the payment of the compensation bonus for work risk, popularly known as “Tractor” (because in its origins it was paid with banrural checks).
Faced with this situation, the police demonstrators said that no authority of the Secretariat of Public Security or the State Government has given them a hearing, so they will maintain the closure of roads in the area of the Peripheral Paseo de la República on the outskirts of the Base of the Unit for the Restoration of Public Order and the headquarters of the Secretariat of Public Security, which has stranded several tractor-trailers and generates a traffic jam for the rest of the population.

The interviewee said that due to the situation, he considers it advisable to meet with governor-elect Alfredo Ramirez before he takes office so that he knows in which state the corporation is being handed over to him.
“I wish the governor-elect could come to visit us to put it in context of how the situation is going to be with how a Secretariat of Public Security and the person he is going to appoint as secretary are going to receive, who are going to come to the ‘house’ with a very strong dump,” Israel N explained.
It was also explained that none of the policemen who demonstrate have left their responsibility aside, since they join the sit-in when their shift ends and then carry out their duties normally.
This media outlet tried to obtain an interview with the head of the agency through its spokesperson, but it was stated that the only official information is that the bonus will be paid until 30 July.
The above was disclosed on the official Twitter account of the agency that says “We inform the elements of the #PolicíaMichoacán, which derived from the steps taken before the relevant bodies for the dispersion of the resource
called “tractor”, this will take place on Friday 30 at the same time as the payment of the second half of July”.
