Thousands of police officers marched through the streets of Madrid, on Saturday, to protest a reform of the Citizen Security Law, known as the 'gag law', which proposes to introduce changes to their professional activities.

Demonstrators marched through the Spanish capital with flags and banners under the slogan "No to citizen insecurity".

The demonstration, which began in the central Puerta del Sol, was also joined by Spanish politicians, including the leader of the far-right Vox party, Santiago Abascal.

"Limiting the means of the intervention of security professionals means limiting the efficiency of violent crowd control, risking the physical integrity of police officers," said Albert Castello, a spokesman for the protest.

Among the modifications is the reduction of the period of detention of people who do not want to identify themselves from six to two hours, and it will no longer be considered an infraction to record police and Guardia Civil officers while they are carrying out their professional activities.

SOUNDBITES:

SOT, Albert Castello, protest spokesman (Spanish): "Limiting the resources for interventions of the security professionals means limiting the efficiency of the violent masses control units, risking the health of the police officers, they want them to get into hand to hand interventions, this will increase a lot the injuries of the police officers."

SOT, Albert Castello, protest spokesman (Spanish): "We believe that limiting sanctions to the economic capacity of the offender is a populist measure, which will eliminate the most important factor of any sanction: deterrence. It will be free for many to break the law."

SOT, Albert Castello, protest spokesman (Spanish): "This reform project doesn't want an agreement between the lawmakers and the police corps to make Spain a safer country, but a political transaction, arithmetic of parliamentary support, maybe it works for the Government, but it doesn't work for society."
