4 key officials set for new post

Incoming Philippine National Police (PNP) Chief Oscar Albayalde said Thursday, April 19, that four police officials will be assigned to new posts as he is set to vacate his at the National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO).

Albayalde said Directorate of Operations chief Director Camilo Pancratius Cascolan will replace him at the NCRPO. They were both members of the Philippine Military Academy (PMA) class of 1986.

Cascolan will be replaced by Calabarzon Police Regional Office director Chief Supt. Ma. O Aplasca.

Taking Aplasca’s position is Quezon City Police District (QCPD) director Chief Supt. Guillermo Eleazar who will then be replaced by Chief Superintendent Joselito Esquivel who is assigned at the directorate for intelligence.

He said the reshuffle was triggered by his assignment as the new PNP chief.

Albayalde said these appointments were not arbitrary but were deliberated upon by an oversight committee. /
