Mulanay police officers were cited for their outstanding services together with the 74th Infantry Batallion, Philippine Army during the Barangay F. Nananiego checkpoint and surveillance operations in Mulanay, Quezon on December 21, 2012.

The counter-dissident operations also confiscated an explosive device, a cal. 22 Rifle, a hand grenade, two long magazines for M-16 Rifle with 37 live ammunitions, a magazine cal. 45 with 7 ammunitions, seven blasting caps, four cellular phones, subversive documents with mapped plan and sketches of the zero target and personal belongings.

Rommel Edaño, Quezon Provincial Administrator assisted by the Quezon PNP acting Provincial Director Police Senior Supt. Dionardo Carlos presented the awards.

Speaking to Provincial Capitol employees and the awardees, Edaño congratulated the honorees and the entire Quezon police organization for their efforts to maintain peace and order.

The provincial administrator also expressed optimism that the awards ceremony will not be the first and the last for provincial peace and order and security achievers’ rites at the Capitol.

Provincial Director Carlos also extended his commendation and congratulations for the police force with the PNP Medal of Merit as the symbol and proof of the grateful police organization and community’s acknowledgement on the uniformed personnel’s extraordinary accomplishment.
