From the Philippine Information Agency (Sep 9): PNP, AFP establish 199 checkpoints in Central Luzon
Philippine National Police (PNP) and Armed Forces of the Philippines have established around 199 checkpoints in Central Luzon following President Duterte’s declaration of a State of National Emergency on Account of Lawless Violence in Mindanao.
These checkpoints are meant to intensify police interdiction operations and maximize police visibility.
“I have directed our provincial and city directors as well as chiefs of police to supervise checkpoints and deployment of patrols in areas of public convergence and vital installations. Also, the entire Central Luzon Police Force is placed in full alert status and all leaves of police personnel are canceled at this time,” PNP Regional Director PCSupt. Aaron Aquino said in a statement.
“The same rules on arrest still apply under State of Lawless Violence and all police units were reminded to strictly observe the prescribed Police Operational Procedures when conducting law enforcement operations, particularly when effecting arrests,” Aquino added.
