Eastern Visayas Police Honor Torre’s Leadership Contributions Early
The Police Regional Office 8 (PRO-8) has expressed deep gratitude for the leadership contributions early demonstrated by outgoing Philippine National Police (PNP) Chief General Nicolas Torre III. Torre, who previously served as Samar provincial director, earned praise for his steadfast dedication to peace and security in Eastern Visayas.
Regional director Brigadier General Jason Capoy led the commendation, highlighting Torre’s exceptional contributions and unwavering commitment to the police force and the Filipino people. “Thank you, General Torre, for your tireless commitment and invaluable service toward the betterment of our national police and the nation,” the statement read, reflecting widespread respect among local law enforcement.
Support for New Acting PNP Chief Nartatez
As the region bids farewell to Torre, PRO-8 also announced its full support for the newly designated Acting PNP Chief, Police Lieutenant General Jose Melencio Corpuz Nartatez Jr. Capoy emphasized the office’s unity in backing the new leadership to strengthen law enforcement efforts.
“PRO-8 stands united and fully dedicated to implementing the directives and programs of the PNP leadership to strengthen the campaign against criminality, corruption, and terrorism, as well as to deepen community relations for a safer, orderly, and progressive ‘Bagong Pilipinas,’” Capoy said.
Torre’s Impact on Eastern Visayas Police
Torre’s service as Samar police provincial director from 2017 to 2019 left a lasting impact on the region. His recent return on June 30 to inaugurate the new provincial police headquarters in Catbalogan City further cemented his commitment to improving local law enforcement infrastructure.
Despite serving less than three months as PNP chief before being relieved on Tuesday, Torre’s leadership contributions early in his tenure have been widely recognized by community members and officials alike.
Commitment to a Safer Eastern Visayas
The Police Regional Office 8 remains steadfast in its mission to advance peace and security in Eastern Visayas. Local leaders noted that the seamless transition of leadership ensures continued focus on combating criminality and fostering strong police-community collaboration.
As the region moves forward, PRO-8’s dedication to the directives of the PNP leadership aims to create a safer, more orderly environment for all residents.
