MAY 28, 2018 – Philippine National Police (PNP) Chief General Oscar Albayalde said human rights is still foremost in the police’s campaign against drugs and asserted that the police force is not lacking in training about human rights awareness in their operations.
“The rules of engagement is paramount in every police operation, and respect for human rights is one of them,” he said.
The Police Chief added that this is the reason why police operatives are instructed to conduct outright investigations into cases that are perceived as unjustly executed or were done without due process.
But while he raised the issue of respect for human rights, Albayalde also said the safety of police operatives is equally important and this is required in situations that are too dangerous during police operations.
In his talk with The Chiefs hosts Amy Pamintuan, Ed Lingao and Roby Alampay on One News Cignal TV News Channel, Albayalde said police safety and protection is stipulated, “but what happens on the ground if there is danger on the part of the operatives is something that we cannot control.”
Albayalde was the featured guest in “The Chiefs” premier episode of the talk show that airs at 8:30 p.m. on One News Cignal TV 8 and 250 (HD).
“There have been 608 cases of violations of human rights involving policemen and this is a good indication that we are not tolerating any wrongdoing,” he said.
Albayalde said the PNP will continue with what has been started in the war on drugs because it has been a good one especially in the improved tokhang and buy-bust procedures.
