PNP reshuffles seven senior officials, reassigns NCRPO district commanders

MANILA — The Philippine National Police (PNP) has implemented a major personnel reshuffle affecting seven senior officials, according to documents released Sunday. The reorganization includes changes to leadership positions within the National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO), with new assignments for district directors overseeing key jurisdictions in Metro Manila.

Brigadier General Melecio Buslig Jr., previously serving as Eastern Police District (EPD) director, has been designated to head the PNP Firearms management unit as part of the command restructuring. The moves reflect ongoing adjustments within the police hierarchy aimed at addressing operational requirements and leadership development across the organization.

The PNP regularly conducts personnel transfers and reassignments among its senior command staff to ensure effective deployment of experienced officers across priority positions. These reorganizations typically involve reassignment of district and regional commanders to strengthen police operations and accountability structures.

The seven-official reshuffle comes as the PNP continues efforts to enhance its organizational structure and operational capacity across its various territorial and functional units. Additional details regarding the other officials affected by the reorganization were not immediately available.
