OIJ Director Criticizes
Investigative Role Of Immigration
Police
Jorge Rojas, the director of the Organismo
de Investigación Judicial (OIJ) criticized
the new immigration law that gives the
Policía Profesional de Migración
(immigration police) powers to investigate
cases of trafficking of persons.
The director emphasized that only the
Judicial Police, that is the OIJ, should
have the task of carrying out investigations
and not the immigration police, thus
creating a "paralell" police body and create
a police under political control with the
power to investigate.
Rojas added that accepting the law as it is,
is putting into the hands of politicians
sensitive investigations.
