Havana, September 22 - Cuba has been conducting the 4th National Exercise for the Prevention and Confrontation of Crime since today, an initiative aimed at strengthening institutional and community responses to criminal manifestations and other harmful phenomena affecting social order.
The purpose of the activity is to increase the operational readiness of law enforcement, optimize investigative processes, and strengthen mechanisms for public oversight and social assistance, according to a report in the newspaper Granma.
Among the actions scheduled for this week are surveillance and patrol exercises, police closures, preventive meetings with potential criminals, streamlining of criminal proceedings, and oversight visits to verify compliance with the law in various areas.
There will also be exemplary trials, inspections of administrative management teams, and state inspection bodies, with the objective of reinforcing discipline and transparency in public management.
An essential component of the exercise is the mobilization of community surveillance structures, such as the Surveillance Detachments of the Committees for the Defense of the Revolution, the workers' guard, the peasant patrols, and the Mirando al Mar (Looking at the Sea ) Detachments, pillars of the popular prevention system.
According to the newspaper Granma, this initiative coincides with the continuation of Operation Contra las drogas se gana (Win Against Drugs), which has included preventive and confrontational activities, neighborhood debates, comprehensive interventions in communities, student and work centers, among others.
