Desprotección en el Campo de Gibraltar
March 12, 2025

  • The Ministry of Interior is accountable for negligence with the SIVE surveillance system in Campo de Gibraltar.
  • The key anti-drug trafficking system SIVE was inoperative for four months after being destroyed by a drug clan.
  • The Ministry's lack of communication about the SIVE situation has increased risks and the unprotected status of the officers.
  • Minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska has been insensitive, highlighting an alleged reinforcement of means in the Strait despite continuous failures.
  • Minister Marlaska has been repeatedly criticized for his management and apparent negligence.

Conclusion: The actions of the Ministry of the Interior and Minister Marlaska have undermined public trust, increased insecurity, and exposure to risks of the law enforcement agents in the fight against drug trafficking.
