Podemos affirms that Marlaska should not be in charge of the Interior after the Barbate tragedy

Podemos has not hesitated to demand the distribution of responsibilities that the Government must assume after the "murder" of two civil guards in Barbate (Cádiz) - run over by a boat of drug traffickers - and has stated forcefully that the Minister of the Interior, Fernando Grande Marlaska, should not continue in office.

"From Podemos we have already repeated many times that, of course, if we had had to negotiate the Government for us, Marlaska should not continue at the head of the Ministry and this tragic, sad event reveals how, in most cases, people are being abandoned. a body like the Civil Guard," stressed the Secretary of Organization of the purple party, Pablo Fernández, this Monday.

Fernández, who has criticized the minister's management in the last legislature, has said that the death of two agents of the Armed Institute is "one more" in a "long list of unacceptable events" in Marlaska's management, denouncing that the Guard Civil "has been demanding and demanding more resources for a long time because they are abandoned."

Podemos understands that it is Marlaska's responsibility to provide the Security Forces and Bodies with the necessary means to prosecute crimes and protect citizens. In this sense, he has criticized that this is a "new episode" in which the Minister of the Interior "has not risen to the occasion."

The 'number three' of Podemos has pointed out, when asked if they plan to fail Marlaska, that in the coming days his deputies in Congress will decide what they will do at the parliamentary level, although they are clear that they censure his management in all the instances within their reach. .
