CITY OF SAN FERNANDO - A ranking official from the Pampanga Police Provincial Office (PPPO) bared the other day that the province ranked fourth in the country with most number of registered firearms.
Supt. R'win Pagkalinawan, police provincial director said this is another factor which led to the inclusion of Pampanga in the list of high risk areas relating to upcoming 2013 midterm elections.
"Ang Pampanga ay number 4 nationwide sa may pinakamaraming registered na baril. Ito ay dahilan kung bakit napabilang ang probinsiya sa mga binabantayan ngayon ng Comelec at ng police," Pagkalinawan added.
He stressed that this development resulted to the establishment of Regional Special Operations Task Force (RSOTG) December last year with Supt. Moro Virgilio Lazo as task force commander and Pagkalinawan as his deputy.
The task force conducts operations under the instruction of the Commission on Elections and in coordination with the local police.
"Ang pinakamataas na insidente ng krimen dito sa Pampanga ay noong 2010 kung saan mayroon tayong limangdaang insidente ng krimen kada buwan. Ang pinakamababa naman ay noong buwan ng Disyembre 2012 na may isang daang at limampung insidente lamang," he stated.
Pagkalinawan also noted that the conduct of regular checkpoints by the ROSTG in all the municipalities had resulted to lesser crime rate.
He explained that different crime groups were prevented from committing illegal activities due to the presence of police authorities in public places.
The police director, meanwhile, encouraged the residents to cooperate with the task fore and local police by providing related related information which in any way might affect the conduct of honest and peaceful elections.
"Ang hotline po natin ay 0927-205-9354. Mag text lang kayo dyan kapag mayroong mga kahina hinalang tao dyan sa inyong mga barangay," he told the barangay officials.
