**Four State Police Officers Temporarily Reassigned in Rosarito Amid Complaints**
Four officers from the State Police have been temporarily reassigned in Rosarito due to two formal complaints lodged since the state police assumed control of local security operations on March 7th. Baja California’s Secretary of Citizen Security, Laureano Carrillo Rodríguez, stated that one complaint was filed with the State Attorney General’s Office, and another with the Internal Control Body of the security department.
“We’ve had individuals step forward with complaints against the state police. To date, there are two formal cases undergoing investigation,” Carrillo Rodríguez said. He added that allegations on social media are being examined, although no further formal reports have been received.
**Officers Reassigned Pending Investigation**
Regarding the status of the four officers, Carrillo Rodríguez clarified that they have been relocated to ensure safety while the Internal Control Body conducts a thorough investigation. “There is no evidence yet linking them to these accusations, but they have been reassigned during the investigation process,” he explained.
Since March 7th, the State Police have taken over security responsibilities in Rosarito, replacing 264 municipal officers who are currently undergoing extensive evaluations, including psychological, medical, toxicology tests, background checks, and polygraph exams. Additionally, their firearms are being inspected for serial numbers and codes.
This situation marks a crucial step toward accountability within Rosarito’s security forces. It may herald the beginning of necessary reforms to enhance the integrity of law enforcement in the region.
