By all accounts, the police project “Implan Tugis” is a success following the capture of 206 most wanted persons in the region.

According to PRO-COR regional director chief Superintendent Villamor A. Bumanglag, “Implan Tugis” sets forth the strategic concepts and operational guidelines in the accounting of all wanted persons in the region.
This is a more aggressive detective efforts by police officers, detectives, and investigators to neutralize the most wanted persons (MWP)in the region in close coordination with other law enforcement agencies, Bumanglag said.

“Our target is to arrest the 510 wanted persons in the Cordillera by the end of the year,” Bumanglag added.
The PRO-COR came up with the list of MWP region wide that serves as database for the “Implan Tugis.” It was distributed to Police Provincial Office (PPOs) down to the municipal police stations and the barangays.
Bumanglag explained that warrants of arrest are issued and that other law enforcement agencies are provided with the data of MWP. The list will also be published in public places for the awareness of the community who can subsequently help in the arrest of these criminals.

We are doing this program with the objective of attaining justice for the victims of crimes, Bumanglag stressed. (JDP/JBZ-PIA CAR)
