Girona under the microscope: a city in crisis

Girona, one of the emblematic cities of Catalonia, is in the spotlight due to the increase in crime. Despite being governed by the CUP, voices of concern are intensifying among citizens who question municipal management strategies.

Alarming numbers: the increase in crimes

The most recent statistics, for the third quarter of 2024, reveal a 10.2% increase in conventional crimes compared to the previous year. This rise includes an increasing number of rapes, violent robberies and thefts, with a particular emphasis on areas near transport stations.

Political denunciation and responsibility

The Vox party has come out on the attack, pointing to political parties such as ERC, Junts and the PSC as responsible for this situation. Ignacio Garriga, the leader of Vox in Catalonia, declared that political decisions have created an environment conducive to criminality, arguing that ‘a criminal enjoys more protection than an honest citizen’.

Proposals for a solution

Alberto Tarradas, a Vox MP and Girona native, called for action, calling for foreign criminals to be deported to their countries of origin. Garriga added that it is urgent to implement a specific security plan to protect the citizens of Girona and Catalonia.

The Civil Society Response

The reactions from civil society are diverse. While some welcome Vox’s proposals, others believe that the solution lies in addressing the social causes of crime and promoting peaceful coexistence among all citizens.

Final thoughts: where is Girona going?

The future of security in Girona is a topic of intense and controversial debate. With the increase in crime, citizens are forced to rethink their expectations of the authorities. The question that remains to be resolved is whether the proposed measures will actually be able to reverse the current situation and guarantee a safer environment for all.
