Police Conduct Investigation in Argentina

Three police officers were removed from their operational duties after a video revealed a serious breach of discipline and police principles. The measure was taken immediately to ensure the transparency of the investigation and to prevent interference.

The General Directorate of Judicial Affairs intervened with the relevant judicial authority to carry out the necessary investigation. Simultaneously, the General Directorate of Internal Affairs initiated an investigation to determine any administrative responsibility that may exist, regardless of judicial intervention.

Both the responsible ministry and the Police Chief expressed their total inflexibility towards any behavior that goes against the ethical and professional values that the police force must uphold. In a statement, it was expressed that "facts such as those reported undermine the trust of citizens, dishonor the commitment of the vast majority of personnel who fulfill their duty with a service vocation, and damage the image and prestige of the Institution."
