Law and order on the agenda<br />
THE centre right Ciudadanos<br />
(Cs) party have tabled<br />
motions in the Congress<br />
of Deputies aimed at tackling<br />
what they see as an<br />
increasing breakdown in<br />
law and order, especially<br />
in some inner cities.<br />
Crime in Barcelona, for<br />
example, has risen by 30%<br />
recently, something that has<br />
been picked up by the press<br />
in countries such as Germany<br />
and the UK where many<br />
visitors to the Catalan capital<br />
come from.<br />
“Multi-recidivism” is one<br />
area that needs addressing<br />
they say, whereby if a thief<br />
by Simon Russell<br />
steals less than €400 it is<br />
classed as a minor offence<br />
and not a crime.<br />
Many career thieves are<br />
aware of this and risk nothing<br />
more than a fine however<br />
many times they re-offend.<br />
The Cs have proposed that<br />
these serial offenders should<br />
be eligible for harsher fines,<br />
including prison sentences,<br />
after committing three or<br />
more such thefts.<br />
They also say that any foreigners<br />
here illegally found<br />
guilty of a crime be deported<br />
back to their home country,<br />
with many currently getting<br />
round this due to the<br />
€400 law.<br />
Their other main proposal<br />
is a crackdown on squatters,<br />
especially in city centres<br />
where it has become rife in<br />
some places.<br />
Apart from the distress<br />
and financial loss to the<br />
home owner, many of these<br />
squats are also used as a<br />
base for crime and drug<br />
dealing with eviction being<br />
a costly and long winded<br />
process say the Cs.<br />
They want an eviction<br />
process introduced which is<br />
“quick and streamlined”.
