-

ROXAS City – Once again, police in Capiz province were warned against any involvemen­t in illegal drug activities.

Senior Superinten­dent Samuel Nacion, provincial police director, urged the public to inform him about officers engaged in drug transactio­ns and protection.

Officers visiting the houses of drug personalit­ies as part of the antidrug campaign are also being closely monitored, Nacion disclosed.

“I don’t want any police (officer) to have any involvemen­t in drug transactio­ns,” he said.

Sanctions will be immediatel­y imposed on officers engaged in the illicit trade, Nacion added.

Nacion attended t he “

Serbisyo,” a program that recognized Pagdayaw policesa Tampad stations ngafor their accomplish­ments, on Monday.

He directed all chiefs of police

to operate under the Provincial Drug Enforcemen­t Unit.

The Capiz Police Provincial Office wanted to clear the province of drugs by this month, but this did not materializ­e after Oplan Double Barrel was

suspended early February, only to be revived early March.

Mambusao, Dao, Dumarao, Dumalag, Cuartero, Sapian, Tapaz, and Jamindan were already declared “drug-cleared,” police records showed. (
