MANILA, Philippines — The chief of police in Dolores Municipal Police in Quezon was sacked after he allegedly violated Philippine National Police’s (PNP) directive to prohibit mass gatherings amid the coronavirus disease pandemic, Quezon Police Provincial Office (QPPO) said Wednesday. May nagreklamo kaya nagkaroon ng investigation kaya nirelieve muna namin,” said Madrideo. (Someone complained so we will undergo an investigation, that’s why we relieved him.) The Quezon police provincial command also appointed Police Lieutenant Almario Dela Rosa as officer-in-charge of Dolores police while Java faces investigation over his reported health violation. Sinas, who is facing criminal raps over the mañanita controversy, previously warned that all partygoers will be placed under police custody.
