The Attorney General favors that the Armed Forces and security organizations of the state reinforce the National Police. Lately, seven innocent bystanders, including a seven-year old girl and a Police agent, have died in shoot-outs by gangs in slum areas such as Capotillo and Gualey. Attorney General Mariano Germ?n says that the reinforcement is necessary as the residents in those areas fear the gangs and will not denounce them.
