¿Adiós a las policías municipales? Gobernador de Michoacán propone desaparecer a los agentes locales

The governor of Michoacán, Alfredo Ramírez Bedolla, reignited the debate on security strategy by reiterating his proposal to eliminate municipal police forces and concentrate policing duties under the National Guard. The governor argued that many local police departments have been infiltrated by organized crime and that municipalities lack the capacity to confront the violence plaguing the state. The proposal has drawn criticism from experts and civil society organizations, who warn that municipal police forces handle the majority of everyday crimes and that eliminating them could weaken public safety. Furthermore, they maintain that the solution lies in strengthening, professionalizing, and improving the working conditions of police forces, rather than disbanding them.
