The threat to a school in Garuva, north of Santa Catarina, put the military police on alert. According to Juarez França dos Santos, commander of the Garuva military police, a profile has been created on the social network about the alleged massacre at Vicente Vieira’s municipal school. This will be scheduled for this Monday (29).

As a preventive measure, the Prime Minister of Garuwa instructed the principal of the school and the education secretary of the municipality to take security measures, collect evidence and file a report with the military police.

“With regard to the Garuwa military police, we have a task force aimed at establishing authorship and other measures.

Police reinforcements are also being sent to increase patrols on the spot and respond to the situation.

“It could be just a thoughtless act of some students, a joke, or maybe something more serious. In all situations, the necessary measures are necessary,” explained Juarez Franz dos Santos.

The commander also emphasizes that the prime minister is ready to serve and take care of the population day and night.

“We are also counting on the cooperation of society and other government agencies to guarantee public safety,” he concluded.

This is not the first case of alleged death threats in schools in Santa Catarina. In April of this year, several schools were subjected to “threats”. The security forces dismissed the case as fake news, but even so, they have beefed up security at the state’s school divisions.
