Rosarito Police Shake Up

Amid complaints, four state police officers in Rosarito have been temporarily removed pending investigation to uphold accountability and reform the local security forces, ensuring public trust. Residents advised to brace for challenging weather conditions in Baja California.

### Four State Police Officers Temporarily Removed in Rosarito Amid Complaints

In a recent development in Rosarito, four state police officers have been temporarily relieved of their duties following two formal complaints lodged against them. This action was taken after the state police assumed control of local security earlier this month.

The Secretary of Citizen Security in Baja California, Laureano Carrillo Rodríguez, confirmed one complaint is being addressed by the State Attorney General’s Office while the other has been forwarded to the Internal Control Body of the security department. Carrillo Rodríguez stated that investigations are already underway: “We’ve received two formal complaints regarding the actions of the state police, and we are actively looking into these allegations.”

While rumors have sparked discussions on social media, the Secretary assured that only these two complaints have been officially filed so far. In response to the situation, the four officers have been reassigned as a precaution, allowing the investigation to proceed without bias. Carrillo Rodríguez emphasized, “There is no concrete evidence connecting them to the accusations yet, but the reassignment is necessary for the investigation process.”

This move comes as part of a broader effort to revamp the security forces in Rosarito. Since March 7th, state police have taken over the responsibility from the 264 municipal officers who are currently undergoing a thorough screening process, which includes psychological and medical evaluations, as well as toxicology tests and social background checks.

As this investigation unfolds, it represents a significant step towards accountability and transparency in Rosarito’s public security framework. There is hope that such actions will initiate a much-needed reform in ensuring public trust in their local security forces.
