Guatemala Bolsters Security on Mexico Border

GUATEMALA - The presence of Guatemalan security forces have increased in border zones with Mexico, where locals had lost confidence on the police.

Ongoing operations, part of the so called 2009 Territorial Recovery Plans, will allow re-establishing contact with people in those areas, who will help improve the anti-crime battle by providing information.

Government Minister Raul Velasquez made known that objective, after he supervised actions by the National Civil Police.

The plan includes the departments of San Marcos, Huehuetenango, and Quetzaltenango, bordering Mexico. Surveillance in those areas includes patrolling, car searches, identification of people, and inspections in commercial establishments, it was officially informed.
