Civil and Forensic Police receive new vehicles.
Governor delivers 42 vehicles to the Civil Police and 31 to the Superintendency of Forensic Science; the cars are part of the fleet renewal package for the Goiás police; Perillo says that projects approved in the Assembly will contribute to improving the structure of the Public Security Secretariat.
Goiás 247_ Governor Marconi Perillo stated this Thursday (24) that, in a short time, the structures of the Public Security and Justice Secretariat of Goiás will have all the physical infrastructure problems solved. The statement was made during the delivery of 42 new vehicles for the Civil Police and another 31 for the Technical-Scientific Police, at an event held in Praça Cívica, in Goiânia. “We are concluding the work so that the resources (for the renovation and maintenance of the buildings) are transferred directly to Public Security,” said the governor.
The reference was to projects authored by the Executive branch and approved at the end of last year by the Legislative Assembly. Among them is the one that assigns the management of resources in each unit to delegates and commanders, which will make the execution of emergency and maintenance works more agile. With this model, already adopted by the Department of Education, the governor emphasized, the maintenance of the SSPJ buildings will be permanent.
According to the governor, units linked to the Forensic Science Police will be prioritized. “We want to emphasize the Forensic Medical Institute. We are committed to providing an increasingly better service to the citizen,” he stressed. The renovation of the Goiânia Forensic Medical Institute, for example, is in its final stages. The units in Aparecida and Itumbiara have ongoing construction.
At the ceremony, which was attended by government and security officials, the governor symbolically handed over 30 Hyundai Tucson vehicles and 7 Volkswagen Amarok pickup trucks to specialized groups within the Civil Police, such as GT3. Thirty-one vans were also delivered to the Forensic Science Police, which will be used to transport corpses to the IML (Institute of Legal Medicine) units.
The delivered batch is part of a total of 1.909 vehicles that were transferred by the State government to the SSPJ forces. Commenting on the infrastructure reinforcement, the Secretary of Public Security and Justice, Joaquim Mesquita, noted that there will also be an increase in personnel, including ongoing recruitment processes for the Military and Civil Police. "Thus, we will meet the expectations of the population and the directives of the governor," the secretary assured.
According to the superintendent of the Forensic Science Police, the number of vehicles for transporting corpses is sufficient to meet the current demand. Rejane Sena Barcelos explained that it will even be possible to maintain a reserve for immediate replacement if necessary. "It's a directive from the governor to reduce response times," she said.
