Close collaboration for optimal security
In small towns where the Local Police are conspicuous by their absence, the local Mossos act as tireless guardians. Under the leadership of Corporal Jordi Gelmà, these agents weave a network of collaboration with mayors, neighbors and entities, exchanging crucial information to prevent crimes.
The mayors Quim Sabrià and Èlia Bantí, of Parlavà and Jafre respectively, highlight the fundamental work of Jordi Gelmà and his team. Its periodic patrols and strategic routes instill a sense of security among the inhabitants, dissuading criminals who seek to take advantage of the scarce police presence.
Dynamic patrol and constant surveillance
To prevent thieves from becoming familiar with their patterns, patrol routes constantly vary. Corporal Gelmà emphasizes that his work goes beyond patrols, covering visits to businesses, elderly people who live alone and police controls at the entrances and exits of the municipalities.
These controls make it possible to detect suspicious individuals transporting objects of dubious origin, such as scrap metal. The Mossos urge citizens to report any suspicious activity, since these thefts, although seemingly insignificant, can have serious consequences.
Information exchange: an alliance against crime
The residents of these towns have organized themselves to facilitate the work of the Mossos. Through WhatsApp groups, they share information about suspicious vehicles or individuals, allowing officers to act more quickly.
Both the mayors and the Mossos recommend always calling 112 in case of emergency. In addition, periodic talks are organized to educate residents about security measures and how to act in suspicious situations.
A police reference: trust and tranquility
Periodic meetings between the Mossos and the mayors strengthen trust between the agents and the neighbors. Both Bantí and Sabrià recognize Corporal Jordi Gelmà as a police reference in the area, an accessible figure always willing to address his concerns.
