MANILA, Philippines — The Philippine National Police (PNP) has named four police generals as directors of the Directorates for Integrated Police Operations (DIPO), which oversees operations of regional and provincial offices. According to Cascolan, the reassignments are geared at expanding the DIPO’s function in security operations, like investigation of crime and terrorism incidents across the jurisdictions of police regional offices. As of now, the PNP has 5 DIPOs — one each for Northern Luzon, Southern Luzon, Visayas, Eastern Mindanao and Western Mindanao. These directorates are operational units involved in directing and conducting integrated anti-crime, internal security, and other counter-terrorism operations. EDVRead Next
