Jim Bondoux Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Here is a news report concerning possible curfews being established in some Chiriqui high crime areas: https://www.tvn-2.com/nacionales/provincias/Podrian-decretar-distritos-delictivo-Chiriqui_0_5411458821.html My loose translation: "Curfews could be ordered in Chiriqui districts with high level of criminal activity. The governor of Chiriqui, Juan Carlos Munoz, on Friday asked the mayors of the districts with the highest level of criminal acts, to contemplate the application of a curfew for minors, as well as to establish schedules for the opening of bars and canteens . We want to see these measures as a series of preventive actions against incidents, said Munoz. I affirm that the intake of alcoholic beverages, as well as the presence of minors in the streets can be a focus that affects criminal acts, hence the application of these measures, the carrot law and the curfew, are important to give more security to the population." (The "carrot law" is the law that directs mayors to set opening hours for businesses that stay open at night, including bars, discos, supermarkets, etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
