Kuller presents project to transform Municipal Guard of PG into Municipal Police

According to the councilor, the objective is to adapt the security structure of the municipality to the new role of the municipal forces, to enhance the professionals of the corporation and to strengthen the actions of crime prevention.

Kuller had announced the proposal last week, after the approval of the PEC of Public Security by the Federal Senate. “The truth is that our Guard is prepared to be a policeman. It is a wish of the administration and the Ponta Grossa,” he says.

By the text, it will be up to the Municipal Police to protect goods, services and public facilities, prevent criminal offences and develop community security actions.

The project also limits the operation of the corporation: it will not be able to preside over police investigations, to carry out investigations that belong to the Civil and Military police or to exercise functions of judicial police.

For Kuller, the change represents a step forward for public safety and recognizes the work of agents.

“We need to value those who are daily on the streets, close to people, and know the reality of our neighborhoods,” the president defends in his justification.

The organizational structure, the rules for the progressive use of force and the training of the agents will be defined later, in regulation of the Executive Power.

The bill is being processed in the House and will go through the legislative analysis stages before being voted on in plenary.
