PNP deputy chief for operations Lt. Gen. Guillermo Eleazar, chief of Joint Task Force COVID Shield, said that just as Metro Manila Police chief Gen. Debold Sinas and the policemen who attended the “mañanita” for Sinas’ birthday will be held liable for violating the law on quarantine, the Pangasinan cops, too, are not above the law.
“No one is above the law. Ang ating mga pulis, tayo na nagpapatupad, una dapat tayong sumusunod diyan ,” Eleazar said in an interview over dzBB when asked about the birthday party in Santo Tomas, Pangasinan. “Iimbestigahan din sigurado yan. Kaya nga ang sinasabi natin hindi lang sa pulis kundi sa public servant natin, we should have this decency as well as sensitivity sa mga sitwasyon na ating kinakaharap at gawin natin yung tama whether may nakakakita o wala kung may camera man o wala, kung may litrato o wala,” he added.“Yung nangyari kay Gen. Sinas, iniimbestigahan na yan at ang bilis ng aksyon natin. In fact, mag-pa-file na nga ng kaso sa kanya ngayon,” he said.
The PNP said it already ordered the Pangasinan police provincial office to investigate the involvement of some policemen in the birthday event of Villar last May 6 while the enhanced community quarantine is in effect. The PNP Internal Affairs Service previously said it is preparing criminal cases against Sinas and other police officials which ignored social distancing during the quarantine period.
