Southern Police District to deploy 1,577 cops for Undas operations

We wish this kind of preparation happened everyday.

“The Southern Police District (SPD) announced that it will deploy 1,577 police personnel to secure 30 cemeteries and other vital installations in south Metro Manila during All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day,” reports Mike Frialde on Philstar.com.

SPD director Chief Supt. Henry Rañola met with the chiefs of police of Makati, Pasay, Las Piñas, Parañaque, Muntinlupa, Taguig, and Pateros at the SPD headquarters in Taguig City and mapped-out the district’s security plan.

Around 2,495 barangay security personnel and security guards are also expected to provide assistance.

The report noted: “Aside from the 30 cemeteries, the SPD will also provide security to 13 bus terminals, four airports, 20 shopping malls and stations of the Light Rail Transit (LRT) and Metro Rail Transit (MRT) within the district’s area of coverage.”
