Shock and despair is starting to build around the communities of Madrid, after it has been confirmed that the Guardia Civil officer who fatally struck an elderly woman at 120 km / h on Saturday in Madrid, is still active in the force.

He has neither “been removed from or has been reprimanded,” following the incident, according to Guardia Civil sources.

The Guardia Civil has opened an internal investigation to clarify the incident and “determine the responsibility of the agent”, which belongs to the Unidad Central Operativa (Central Operations Unit) or UCO and is dedicated to combating terrorism.
