In this way, the candidate for the Chamber of Representatives for Valle del Cauca, Gustavo Orozco, made a protest for the number of people who have died violently in the city, so that the Mayor’s Office of Cali “improves the security mechanisms and guarantees the lives of the people of Cali.”
“The safety of Caleños has to be their priority, we are tired of being robbed and killed. The figures are overwhelming, they show the reality of the city as the Colombian capital of homicide and reflect the great fear felt by the people of Cali, since the situation is getting worse every day. We need the mayor to put on his pants, take responsibility for him as the first public order authority and do the most basic thing: protect us, ”said Orozco.
