The Minister of the Interior, Luis Alberto Heber, assured that he is thinking of outsourcing the service of the patrol cars to “lease” vehicles to meet demands for “police presence” on the streets, he said interviewed in the program Controversy in the Bar.
“We are thinking about the possibility of a company giving me the service,” he said, adding that it is to lease the vehicles instead of buying them and paying them monthly or annually, he explained.
He considered that it would be useful to avoid the delay it takes for a vehicle to leave the workshop. In this way, he would not have to “wait for the workshop to return it to me”, but the company would replace it.
He calculated that Of an estimated 3,000 cars in the ministry’s possession, “only 1,000 are in good condition.”
The minister believes that it will be possible to take the step through a decree, without the need to send a bill to Parliament. “They’re checking me out,” he added.
It would be a measure to “have more vehicles on the streets” and meet the demands of the people. “The people who complain are right,” she admitted.
“It’s a good thing that we can take cars” to camouflage the investigative body, he defended himself, when asked about his decision to use the vehicle seized from “Betito” Suárez.
