Policing

Protection Civil are Volunteers, who show an interest in helping to protect their area. They are not Police Officers. The Protection Civil is open to Spanish and Extranjero residents. Training will be given in First Aid and all aspects of Security.
Strangely enough all the volunteers in San Fulgencio are Spanish residents.
However any person, over the age of 18 years can apply to join. This will always look good on a persons C.V.
They are there, to be utilised in cases of emergency and to release the Policia Local, from some of the mundane duties that they were required to do. Our own Protection Civil operate both here and in San Fulgencio village. In extreme cases they could be called upon to assist in emergencies in other areas.

Plans are in the pipeline to collate crime statistics and utilise them for the purposes of Crime Pattern Analysis. The results will be made available to the general public and be used by the Policia Local to pinpoint areas and times when properties and vehicles are most vulnerable. This will require the cooperation of the general public to report crimes, attempted crimes and suspicious incidents.
More information on the CPA will be released in due course.

After last years Fiesta, with floats etc in San Fulgencio Pueblo, many residents stated that they would have attended had they known about it and others who said that the problem was transportation to and from the village.
