In Iloilo province, only the Calinogpolice station had such quick response that Napolcom conducted during a surprise inspection on Feb. 23, said Napolcom spokesperson Allen Camering.
“We called their hotline and told them there was a stabbing incident at the poblacion,”Camering said. “Theyresponded four minutes despite the bad weather.”
Regional Director Marte Palomar led the awarding ceremony at the Napolcom regional office.
Bermejo thanked Napolcom for recognizing their efforts.
He told Panay News he was in court attending a hearing when Napolcom informed him there was stabbing.
“I didn’t know it was only a drama,” said Bermejo. “What’s on my mind was to arrest the suspect and know that status of the victim.”
At their station, Bermejo said he scolded his men when he learned that they were unable to locate the crime scene.
