- Operatives Arrest 5 During Anti-Illegal Gambling Operations In Makati City Posted on August 28, 2019 August 28, 2019 The intensified campaign against illegal gambling of the National Capital Region Police Office resulted in the arrest of five individuals in Makati City.
From being an officer-in-charge since October 2019, Gen. Archie Gamboa officially became the PNP's top man in January following his appointment by President Rodrigo Duterte. Two months after assuming as PNP chief, Gamboa's leadership skills faced the ultimate baptism of fire as he led the police force in preserving peace and order while at the same time helping prevent the spread of Covid-19.

Under Gamboa's term, crime incidents in the country dropped by 47 percent as community quarantine measures in the country amid the Covid-19 have been in effect for six months.
During this time, then Joint Task Force Covid Shield commander, Lt. Gen. Guillermo Eleazar, said from 31,661 incidents of focus crimes recorded between Sept. 15, 2019 to March 16 this year, the figure dropped to only 16,879 from March 17 to Sept. 16.
The decline in crime incidents in the country translates to an average of 92 cases per day during the 184 days of the community quarantine compared to an average of 172 cases per day during the six-month pre-quarantine.
'We have been conducting an analysis of the crime situation in the past six months in order to identify the best practices and security adjustments that we could replicate in other areas and eventually institutionalized in order to sustain this momentum,' Eleazar earlier said.
The nine-month crime trend recorded from January to September further dipped towards the end of October with a more notable decrease in index crimes.
The PNP attributed this to their stepped-up campaign against illegal drugs and other forms of criminality while launching a massive crackdown on motorcycle-riding criminals involved in robbery-holdup and gun-for-hire activities.
The PNP also showed a 46-percent drop in focus crimes in the country during the 226-day community quarantine period (March 17 to Oct. 28, 2020) with 21,729 crimes, compared to 39,920 during the same period before the community quarantine (Aug. 4, 2019 to March 16, 2020).

Camilo Cascolan, said the PNP's comprehensive master development plan includes giving equal opportunity and level the playing field in the placement and promotion of personnel based strictly on performance, service reputation, and merit and fitness in establishing a rationalized 'succession planning' and 'career path'.
Despite having a short term, Cascolan said he aims to boost morale and take care of the welfare of police officers.
Under his watch, Cascolan said PNP embarked on an intensive drive to promote human resource development aimed at ensuring that every police officer 'will know his or her job and do it well.'
Cascolan bowed out of the service on Nov. 10 upon reaching the mandatory retirement age of 56. He was replaced by then National Capital Region Police Office chief Debold Sinas.

He added that as part of his core guidance, all police personnel on operations, such as patrol, anti-illegal drugs, anti-kidnapping, and others, must wear bulletproof vests, and other protective equipment.
Sinas also cited the surrender of nearly 3,000 communist terrorist personalities from January to November this year and major operational setbacks have weakened the Communist Party of the Philippines-New People's Army (CPP-NPA).
Sinas said over the entire 11-month period, a total of 3,312 CPP-NPA members were accounted for, of which 366 were arrested; 117 died during the operations, and 2,829 surrendered during separate police operations.
On the very day of the 52nd founding anniversary of the CPP on Dec. 26, he said 35 communist fighters surrendered and renounced their membership with the CPP and its armed wing, NPA in Caraga and Eastern Visayas regions.
On the same day, two ranking CPP-NPA-National Democratic Front leaders, both wanted by the court to stand trial for kidnapping and murder, were captured in Quezon province.
From Dec. 18 to 26, Sinas said six CPP-NPA-NDF members were arrested, 108 surrendered and 45 assorted firearms and eight explosive devices were confiscated.
Sinas said the enactment of Republic Act 11479 or the Anti-Terrorism Act of 2020 on July 3 boosted 'the opportunities for the PNP to fully end the local insurgency.'
He said the communist group was generally passive in terms of mounting offensive operations that could show its strength and relevance relative to the celebration of the CPP's 52nd founding anniversary.
'This passive stance strongly supports the overall assessment that the CPP/NPA has been substantially weakened because of the sustained and intensified government efforts to end local communist armed conflict that resulted to significant losses of key CPP-NPA leaders, seasoned fighters, and mass supporters,' he said.
Sinas said the PNP has enrolled 350 rebel returnees to the Enhanced Comprehensive Local Integration Program (E-CLIP) and amnesty program, while 407 surrendered firearms were processed for grant of government benefits under E-CLIP.
Pursuant to Executive Order No. 70 creating the National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (NTF-ELCAC), these rebel returnees are given the life-changing opportunity to lead normal lives with their families as free and empowered citizens, he said.
Sinas, however, said the PNP remains vigilant in ensuring that it can effectively neutralize the remaining strength and armed capabilities of the rebels.
'It is still likely that they will attempt to mount armed offensives, possibly through the use of improvised landmines to ensure casualties,' he said.
He said the recent formal tag by the Anti-Terrorism Council of the CPP-NPA as a terrorist organization, is another significant setback to the underground local communist movement and its affiliate organizations.
This means that CPP-NPA assets may now be subject to the Anti-Money Laundering Council's authority to freeze pursuant to Section 11 of RA 10168 or the Terrorism Financing Prevention and Suppression Act as provided under Section 25 of the Anti-Terrorism Act.
'With more equipment and personnel for tactical police operations, including five newly-organized maneuver battalions of the PNP Special Action Force, the PNP is poised to hit harder on its assigned internal security tasks and specific target,' he said.
The CPP-NPA is listed as a terrorist organization by the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the Philippines. (PNA)
