Efforts are being made to establish agreements with merchants and economic sectors to combat various crimes. It is planned to create three police sectors, implement a unified command, and expand the video surveillance system with more security cameras at strategic points.
Within the management of security in the Historic Center, Master Carlos Cervantes Godoy has been designated as the new authority for the area. His main objective is to attend to the population that resides, works, and moves through this important commercial, cultural, and political epicenter. By instruction of the head of government, efforts are being made to reinforce security in the area in collaboration with various local and federal institutions.
Following a violent incident in the Historic Center that resulted in fatalities, efforts to bring the perpetrators to justice have been intensified. The head of government, Clara Brugada, has reaffirmed her commitment to eradicate violence through comprehensive actions that promote coexistence and security in the community. The development of a strategy to prevent, reduce, and combat extortion in the area has been announced.
