The president of the Region of Murcia, Fernando López Miras, has assured that those responsible for the attack on the 68-year-old Torre Pacheco resident will be brought to justice, but he called for calm and trust in the state's security forces.
After meeting with Pedro Ángel Roca, the mayor of Torre Pacheco, López Miras thanked and acknowledged the work of the Civil Guard and the Local Police over the past two days in Torre Pacheco to protect the population.
Those responsible for the attacks will be held accountable, and the full force of the law will fall upon them, of course. I understand everyone's frustration, but we must trust the state's security forces and the law, of course, he asserted.
López Miras calls for calm
Therefore, he has called for calm. The residents of Torre Pacheco want to live in peace and coexist as they have until now. And the calls for violence we are seeing from both sides cannot be allowed or tolerated.
The president of Murcia has emphasized that the citizens of Torre Pacheco are honorable, honest, hardworking men and women who have lived peacefully together in their town for many years. And they don't want this to happen. And they won't allow it either.
Finally, he requested the mobilization of all necessary personnel to guarantee security in Torre Pacheco. It is extremely important that all State security forces and bodies be mobilized to guarantee the safety of the population. What we have seen in recent hours cannot happen again, he concluded.
