“This is the very reason why the local police were not deployed to the boarders of Metro Manila but rather, they were retained within their areas of responsiblity, to continue their anti-criminality and anti-illegal drug operations. It is indeed disappointing that despite of the danger caused by COVID 19, there are still some people who are taking advantage of the situation to do their illegal activities. Nevertheless, police force is ready to serve and protect our community 24/7 from all forms of criminality and prevention of drug proliferation,” ani Sinas.
