MANILA — The Philippine National Police has aligned itself with Senator Panfilo "Ping" Lacson's assertion that keeping details of the manhunt operation confidential is vital to its success.
"Sen. Lacson is correct that secrecy is key in our operation," PNP spokesperson Col. Allen Rae Co stated during a media briefing on Tuesday.
The remarks underscore the law enforcement agency's commitment to maintaining operational security as it conducts its search for Senator Ronald "Bato" dela Rosa. Lacson's position on limiting public disclosure of manhunt tactics and developments has gained backing from PNP leadership.
The emphasis on confidentiality reflects standard police procedure in high-profile cases where premature disclosure of operational details could compromise investigative efforts or witness safety.
