MEXICO CITY - Officers of the Mexican federal police protested on Wednesday against the newly created National Guard, saying their superiors had threatened firings if they did not join the security force, in which they face pay cuts and loss of seniority benefits.
“They’re aiming to keep their jobs, their salaries, their schedules, their bonuses and even their positions once they move on to the National Guard,” Ivan Chavez, a lawyer representing a group of federal police, said in an interview on local radio. A petition signed by “federal police in favor of legality and justice” listed demands such as salary hikes, a union for the federal police and National Guard and sought evaluation by those with police experience, rather than military officers.
