Duties

Although the duties of the Mozos de Escuadra are described by the Constitution of Monsa, these have been greatly reformed over the years, with the last reform happening during August 21, 1990 after a large national debate and plebiscite. Since then, the Mozos are regulated by the Organic Law 3/1990 that describe the duties of the Mozos as activities related to the observation, information, prevention, dissuasion and repression. A second article of the law specifies:

  • To control borders and enforcing immigration policy; taking tasks related to refugee, asylum, extradition and expulsion of foreign citizens.
  • To control receipts and outgoings of the foreign people and Monsans.
  • Issuing identity documents, especially national ID cards and passports and granting the documents needed when these are missing.
  • To control private security companies.
  • Observing and investigating when there are traces of illegal activities.
  • To dissuade, or repress if it were needed, activities that go against the public security.
  • To keep control in prisons and other detainment locations.

Mozos are also limited in their activities by a third section of the Organic Law 3/1990, which pursues an ethical, humane and responsible policing act, grating rights to detained citizens and foreign people.
