“I detected a cancer in 2013, had 40 years and he wore a half life in the Civil Guard, my last destination for years has been in the USECI (Citizen Security), I bought a house near the headquarters and I made my life with my family there; after the disease I have lived a calvary personal and professional, but since more than a year ago I managed to get back to work, although in a post-bureaucratic, without a weapon and without exit to the street, but it has been my best therapy until last week I was notified of the termination by to be qualified as “useful, with limitations”. Since then I’m at home, waiting for the release of vacancies [according to the General Directorate of the Guardia Civil, “to march 2024”] to be able to ask for another destination and I’ve lost all the specific plug-ins: about 600 euros per month”.

however, the Government approved in August the new rule, “an extension” of that of 2017, and that the Council of State, in its opinion, qualifies as “difficult to understand for those who are affected by it”. That last and intricate version is the one that, for the moment, it is being applied and filling up of uncertainty to guards such as Antonio. Everyone gets the same notification: “Cessation of the target for the loss of psychophysical aptitude”.
