During this period, officers carried out almost fifty preventive checks, focusing mainly on road safety, document verification and alcohol and drug testing, with the aim of anticipating risky behaviour and maintaining public order in the various urban centres of Mijas.

In the area of public safety, the Local Police made five arrests, four of them related to search adn arrest warrants, and one for a crime of robbery with violence and attempted homicide, actions which, according to the Town Hall, "demonstrate the police force's capacity to respond to particularly serious criminal acts".

74 reports for offences

Likewise, during the month of January, 74 reports were filed for offences against the Law on the Protection of Public Safety, with 55 of these relating to drug use in public places, in addition to penalties for disrespecting officers, disobeying authority, disturbing public order and damaging property.

In terms of coexistence and civic behaviour, the Local Police issued 35 reports for violations of the Citizen Coexistence Ordinance, mainly for littering outside designated areas, generating noise or disturbing neighbours, and for breaches related to the responsible pet ownership.

In addition to these, there were 27 reports for violations of the Public Roads Ordinance, all of them for not cleaning up dog urine on public roads, as well as six reports for underage drinking in public spaces.

Positive review

The councillor for Security and first deputy mayor, Juan Carlos Cuevas Dawson (Vox), assessed these figures, emphasising that "they reflect an active Local Police force, present on the streets and fully supported by the Town Hall, which acts firmly against anti-social and criminal behaviour to ensure the peace of mind of our residents". The councillor also pointed out that "prevention is a key security tool and a permanent priority for the Public Safety department".

In this regard, Cuevas Dawson insisted that "compliance with the rules is not an option, it is an obligation for living together in a safe and orderly municipality", and thanked "the professionalism and daily commitment of the Mijas Local Police officers".

The Mijas Town Hall reiterates the importance of civic-mindedness and citizen collaboration as essential elements for safe and respectful coexistence, reaffirming "the municipal commitment to continue supporting the work of the Local Police and maintaining prevention and control measures throughout the municipality".
