The AUGC union, which represents officers of the Guardia Civil, has denounced the body for failing to issue instructions as to what the increase in terror threat to level 4 means to them.
The union considers it reckless that despite the existence of a “higher level of alert” there are no specific measures having been taken, instructions issued or service modified for officers on the front line. A statement from the union says that although they are supposed to be in a state of “high tension”, the reality is that most members of the Guardia Civil began their service since the attacks on Friday with no more information than other citizens.
