Colombia. We are going to give 12 cameras, they are the ones we have," announced the governor of Valle del Cauca, Dilian Francisca Toro, to the community of La Victoria, when presenting a new video surveillance system for the municipality.
The request was heard during the citizen conversations, where Juan Guillermo Restrepo, spokesman for the Coexistence and Citizen Security Table, exposed the need for new cameras.
"We request the strengthening of security with 10 video surveillance cameras to be located in strategic places, including rural areas," Restrepo said. In response, the departmental president indicated that there will be 12 cameras destined for the municipality.
Guillermo Londoño, Undersecretary of Security and Coexistence Management of the Valley, reported that "this system will have PTZ, which are cameras that have 360-degree rotations, and fixed cameras that will strengthen the capacities that have been installed to work for all the security of the people of Valle del Cauca."
The governor also highlighted the results of the work with the authorities on security. "I congratulate the entire community of La Victoria for these results in security, we should not have a single death, but it is one of the municipalities that in all of Valle del Cauca has had the fewest homicides and precisely, that is due to the information of the community, to prevent crime," Toro said.
The mayor of La Victoria, Marco Aurelio Cardona, reiterated the importance of departmental support. "Thanks to your support, La Victoria at this time is one of the calmest municipalities, because you, Governor, have given us your hand on the issue of security," he concluded.
