During his speech, José Antonio García explained that traditional crimes have started a path of stagnation but that instead new crimes such as cybercrime are emerging where “we must respond and transmit to citizens the necessary security”.
In this regard, the subdelegate has assured that Cáceres continues to be one of the safest provinces in Spain and that is thanks to all the agents that make up this province. “Fighting crime requires resources, and today I can say that the National Police are being strengthened.”
Likewise, García has affirmed that the staff of the National Police of Cáceres and Plasencia are between 94 and 92 percent of occupation. “Since 2019, this Government has convened more than 32,263 new places for the National Police and the Civil Guard, we will have State Security Forces and Bodies equal to what Spain needs.”
