Leaked Police Call Reveals Migrant Gangs Have Led To No-Go Zones For Authorities In Catalonia<\/span><\/p>\n

Torell\u00f3, a town in the Osona region of Catalonia, is facing growing insecurity after a leaked recording revealed local police officers acknowledging they are unable to control violent migrant groups gathering in certain areas, <\/strong>and have been laughed at and forced to retreat from dispatch calls.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The audio, verified by authorities and reported by\u00a0ElCaso.cat<\/a>, captures an officer telling a resident that police cannot act against around 25 rioters in Sant Josep Street because only two officers were on duty.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are laughing at us,\u201d <\/strong>the officer said in the call. \u201cThey are throwing us out. If we don\u2019t want to get hurt, we too [must leave],\u201d <\/strong><\/em>he added, describing how officers had to withdraw after being met with hostility.<\/p>\n

Residents say the area around the old Vitri lot has become a hotspot for antisocial behavior, fights, and intimidation.<\/p>\n

The call has been widely circulated by neighbors, who see it as a symbol of law enforcement\u2019s loss of control. <\/strong>Many have organized a rally outside the town hall for Monday evening to demand action from local authorities.<\/p>\n

Security Councillor Elisabet Vi\u00f1as, from the Republican Left, confirmed the recording\u2019s authenticity and acknowledged the seriousness of the situation. In a private message to residents, she wrote: \u201cThe Local Police are going there, they are there and have arrested them many times. The laws are not strong enough, nor justice fast enough to get rid of these filthy people.\u201d<\/p>\n

She added that the problem stemmed largely from young men, \u201cmostly foreigners from the Maghreb,\u201d who had occupied several nearby apartments and were allegedly involved in burglaries and shop break-ins.<\/p>\n

Municipal sources admitted the issue extended beyond Torell\u00f3. \u201cWe need stronger laws, faster justice, and more police on the streets,\u201d one official said, noting that insecurity was a growing concern across the country. The town council has announced the creation of five new positions in the Local Police to strengthen its force.<\/p>\n

Catalonia has become the epicenter of violent crime in Spain, with foreigners vastly overrepresented in serious offenses, according to interior ministry crime stats published in January.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The stats portal for 2023 showed that all 10 Spanish cities with the highest rates of violent robberies and intimidation are located in Catalonia, with Barcelona leading the list.<\/p>\n

Remix News\u00a0previously reported<\/a>\u00a0in November last year on statistics highlighting the extent of foreign overrepresentation in Catalan prisons. At the time, 50.48 percent of the inmate population comprised non-Spaniards.<\/p>\n
