The swift arrest of a cellphone snatcher in Manila just three minutes after the crime was committed proves that the Philippine National Police (PNP)’s strategy of police visibility and quick response time is working.

Malacañang expressed confidence on Wednesday that patriotic government officials will continue to defend the country’s sovereignty.

Malacañang stated that government prosecutors and law enforcement officials will continue to conduct an exhaustive investigation into the case of 34 missing cockfighters, also known as sabungeros, to ensure that justice is served.

The relief of several Makati City Fire Station officials over the obstruction of the fire truck bay clearly reflects the Marcos administration’s firm commitment to public safety, a Malacañang official said Wednesday.
