Director General Ronald “Bato” M. dela Rosa has placed the Philippine National Police on nationwide full alert status for All Saints’ Day.
Dela Rosa said the PNP will have no breaks or leaves during “Undas” to maximize the deployment of personnel to cemeteries and other areas.
“Sa ating mga kapulisan, we expect na wala tayong break, wala tayong leave dahil tayong lahat ay magdu-duty sa lahat ng sementeryo at sa subdivision na iiwan ng mga tao na pupunta sa sementeryo,” Dela Rosa said.
“Full alert status tayong lahat at doon naman sa mga mamamayan natin, we are advising you to please secure your premises, ‘yung households ninyo bago kayo pumunta sa sementeryo dahil yung mga Akyat-Bahay diyan, magpipiyesta sa bahay ninyo kung hindi ninyo na-lock properly yung mga pamamahay ninyo,” he added.
The PNP chief urged the public to observe All Saints’ Day in a very serene way. “Please observe Undas in a very serene way. Basta hindi magulo, hindi magi-inuman, hindi mag attract ng pansin ng ibang tao dahil magagalit yung ibang tao dahil diyan.” (PNA)
