The Security Minister considered it “out of place” the fact that Metropolitan Police members attend courses on Terrorism
Nilda Garre assured that “the Metropolitan Police does not have any faculty whatsoever that may link the force to anti terrorist struggle.
The Minister thus referred to the decision of the city government to send agents to the International Law Enforcement Academy (ILEA).
"It is too difficult to understand which could have been the city government's reasons to send the Metropolitan Police forces, whose duties are of public order and very restricted , to be trained at the ILEA, a follower of the School of Americas.
Most South American dictators and repressors studied at the School of the Americas established in Panama in 1946 and moved to Fort Benning, US in 1984, where it changed its name in 2001, a predecessor of the current ILEA in San Salvador.
For the second year in a row, the city government of Mauricio Macri sent Police Forces to the mentioned school to be trained against Terrorism.
