The Chief of Police, Jose Armando Polanco Gomez, says that he has a list of police agents who have avoided new training by using friends in high places, and he will recommend their discharge during the next session of the Higher Police Council.
The highest-ranking Police officer did not go into details or mention the exact number, although he did say that the training for the force is systematic. Polanco Gomez warned that many police officers have been discharged due to improper actions and that these measures would not be halted.
He attributed the beating of a medical student in Mao to a lack of professionalism and proper training, and ordered the immediate suspension of five agents involved in the incident. He stated that many policemen want to be colonels, generals and even chiefs, without having served as lieutenants, majors and captains beforehand. "Then what they create is a problem, a disturbance in society because they have not been trained as policemen," he said.
On the subject of the 1,400 members of the military forces who will patrol the streets together with the police, he said that all have been assigned to different parts of the country. Commenting on the list of 176 police and military personnel on trial for a range of crimes, according to a report from the District Attorney of the National District, Polanco Gomez said that many have been discharged for the poor management of their commands.
