Three NCR police district heads named regional directors
Three district directors from the National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) were promoted to regional directors as Philippine National Police (PNP) chief General Debold Sinas announced the designation of 23 officials to new posts in the latest round of reorganization.
In a statement, Sinas said Manila Police District (MPD) director Brig. Gen Rolando Miranda will be the new Western Visayas regional head.
Quezon City Police Director Brig. Gen Ronnie Montejo will be the Central Visayas head and Northern Police District (NPD) director Brig. Gen Ronaldo Ylagan will lead the Zamboanga regional police office.
Sinas said the change of command ceremony for Ylagan was put on hold after he tested positive for COVID-19.
Sinas said the latest movement was recommended by the Senior Officers’ Placement and Promotion Board primarily due to vacancies created by retiring seven senior officials who have applied for non-duty Status ahead of their retirement date.
