(CNN Radio Argentina ) - The head of the Strategic Planning Program for Security Policies of the Defensoría de la Ciudad, Gabriel Fuks , said on Tuesday at CNN Radio that in his opinion the government of Mauricio Macri failed in matters of security and He pronounced in favor of the creation of a “great national security council”.
" There is a failure in security policies, of the supposed hard hand " implemented by Minister Patricia Bullrich, said the official and member of the technical teams of Alberto Fernández in Café con Pepe .
In his dialogue with Pepe Gil Vidal, Fuks said that the “hard-handed” policy launched by the government “will end as follows: Patricia Bullrich returns home and (Luis) Chocobar,” the police officer accused of killing a thief from behind in Boca, "on February 27 the court goes through".
"All those applause" of the authorities to this type of events, continued the official aligned to "albertismo" in the city, "did not fulfill any function."
There is a failure in security policies, of the supposed hard hand
In his opinion, "there were no major doctrinal changes " in terms of security and said that "the most important thing was half of the Federal Police was transferred to the city."
In that sense, he called for “transforming what was left of the Federal Police into a Judicial and Investigative Police that is auxiliary to justice, such as the FBI. In Chile and Brazil it is very common, ”said Fuks.
The Security Council
Fuks said that "the greatest security policy is the policy of inclusion" and endorsed "the idea of creating a great security council with the participation of the opposition and civil society that transforms security into a state policy."
"It may be one of the first rules sent to Congress " in the new government, he said.
In this regard, he explained that this council “will raise doctrinal issues such as the use of weapons, the use of force” with “a more democratic space with the participation of other sectors in which the opposition, human rights organizations and civil society There are some of the main guidelines ”of the new policy that Alberto Fernández will promote, he said.
Fuks frowned on the policy of use of Taser guns launched by Minister Bullrich and considered "absolutely absurd" to use these weapons for example "in crowded subway stations" where passengers can fall to the tracks as a result of their use.
“The problem is training. I don't want to say that they can't be used, but not in the propaganda way that the government intended ”to install, he said.
On an eventual judicial reform, Fuks said it would be necessary to "build a specific police that can be an assistant to justice."
"It is necessary that everything that is research be in the hands of a force that responds to the Executive Power and not to gray areas of intelligence," he said.
