MEXICO UNVEILS NEW FEDERAL POLICE FORCE
MEXICO CITY - Mexico unveiled a new federal police force
Wednesday, responding to citizens' clamor for more protection from
kidnappings, highway robberies and other crimes plaguing the nation.
The so-called Federal Preventive Police (PFP), a force of more than
14,000 officers including 5,000 military police, will also work to
crack down on illegal immigration, unlawful arms possession and drug
trafficking, officials said.
Those sorts of offenses increasingly have terrorized Mexicans, who
enjoyed a relatively low crime rate until a 1995 economic crisis threw
a million Mexicans out of work and ushered in a new era of violence.
"It's obvious that we Mexicans are in total paranoia over crime,"
Javier Ibarrola, an independent analyst specializing in security
matters, told Reuters. "The worse part is that we're getting used to
it and see it as natural."
The Federal Preventive Police will support "preventive" polices forces
at the local level, whose main job is to patrol the streets and
curtail crime as it happens. Mexican states and the federal government
also have detective forces that work for the various attorneys general
whose main tasks are to investigate.
