Security: public safety is assured by physical presence and technology

Governor Carlos Mbada Ratinho Junior said Friday (18), in an interview with GloboNews, that Paraná's public security structure would be reinforced by increased police presence and police integration.

He confirmed the implementation of the police town proposed during the electoral campaign, which will integrate in one place the summit of state security, federal and municipal.

ESCOLA – Ratinho Junior announced in February the launch of the Safe School program, which will allow police officers on the reserve to stay at the door of public schools to ensure the safety of students, parents and children. teachers.

a similar project adopted in the 1990s in Portugal, according to him, with excellent results. "This measure should also reduce school dropout, because many young people do not go to school because of the insecurity around them," he said.

PRISONS – The prison problem is another challenge on the government's agenda. The governor recalled that today about 10,000 prisoners are temporarily housed in police stations in Paraná due to lack of places in prisons. "A problem common to all countries," he said. In addition to the need to invest, explained the governor, it is necessary to rethink the entire Brazilian penitentiary system, which he described as being outdated and mismanaged.

Ratinho Junior cited structural problems, mixing prisoners with different degrees of crime and the aforementioned cost. of the world average. "Today, the prison costs $ 1.2,000 a month in Brazil, the value is $ 1,000 worldwide, we do not handle money well and we treat prisoners in prison inhumanely. "

A good example is the economy of nearly $ 100 million in meals in penitentiaries, carried out by the new government only through renegotiation. of the contract. "The supplier is the same, the quality of the food is the same, we just renegotiate, then you see that this money has been spent badly, it lacked management."

PARTNERSHIP – The governor defended the partnership with the private initiative in the penitentiary field. He gave the example of the United States, where about 50% of the prisons are managed by private companies, without the state's guardianship being entrusted to a command and responsibility of the prisoner.
