NCRPO director visits Lim at City Hall

MANILA, Jan.14 (PIA) - NCRPO director, General Nicanor Bartolome accompanied by Manila Police District director, Chief Supt Roberto Rongavilla, Deputy Chief Sr Supt Alex Gutierrez, and other officers from the Manila Police District, and the PNP-NCRPO called on Mayor Lim on Jan. 12.

During the meeting, the peace and order situation in the city including the ongoing manhunt for the suspected rapist, PO3 Antonio Bautista was discussed.

The mayor said that since PO3 Bautista remains in hiding and does not appear in court to defend himself, the proceedings for administrative case and the summary dismissal against him should also be expedited.

NCRPO Director Bartolome sought the mayor’s opinion if it is possible that the cost of Meralco bills in police stations be shouldered with the help of the neighboring barangays that the police stations serve.

The mayor advised Gen. Bartolome to call the barangay chairmen concerned for a meeting and discuss the issue. The mayor also suggested the possibility of seeking the help of big establishments in the police station areas to help them with their Meralco bills as part of their “corporate social responsibility.”

Chief of Staff and concurrent Media Bureau Chief Ricardo E. de Guzman and Secretary to the Mayor Rafaelito M. Garayblas were also present at the meeting. (Manila PIO/PIA-NCR/akag)
