Senator Jacqueline Van Rysselberghe (UDI) described as “a very serious fact”, the charges that the Comptroller General of the Republic raised, through a summary investigation, against 7 high command of the Carabineros for their actions in the control of public order during the episodes of violence during the social outbreak.
The parliamentarian questioned that the controlling body intends to supervise and sanction the procedures of the Carabineros in the fulfillment of its operational tasks to maintain security and public order.
“This is an attribution that exceeds the powers that the law grants to the Comptroller’s Office, an entity that is called upon to pronounce on the administrative acts of the State and not on the way in which the police exercise their police function in the maintenance and control of the public security. He also acts as judge and party in this case, without allowing the notified police officers to have the opportunity to defend themselves, “said the president of the UDI.
“It would be good for the Comptroller to leave their offices for a while and go to learn about the complex work that Carabineros must carry out to maintain public order in the streets, faced with groups of violent activists who attack them without contemplation,” added the senator.
“It seems to me to be a very delicate situation, because the Comptroller’s Office is assigning itself functions that correspond to the courts of justice. The latter are called upon to investigate and establish sanctions in the event that irregularities are detected in police action at the time of controlling order public, “he stressed.
“If these sanctions are carried out, a nefarious precedent will be set regarding the interference of the Comptroller’s Office in functions as sensitive as those carried out by the police to confront crime and violence. This investigation and indictment is inadmissible, and is Another wake-up call so that once and for all the Comptroller’s Office is required to stick exclusively to the tasks for which it is empowered by law and not continue to overreach, “Van Rysselberghe closed.
