PNP Neg.Or. will not tolerate
‘police brutality,’ Lawas says

BY JUDY F. PARTLOW

Negros Oriental provincial police director, Sr. Supt. Rey Lyndon Lawas, has assured that his office will not tolerate any abuses by officials or non-commissioned officers of the Philippine National Police in the province.

The assurance came as his office is still awaiting the submission of a report from Insp. Rodrigo Tubog of the police station in Sibulan town, about 20 minutes drive north of Dumaguete City, on the alleged maltreatment of a minor detainee by a policeman and the poor living conditions of minors there.

Last week, special investigator Jess Cañete of the Commission on Human Rights in Negros Oriental, visited the Sibulan police station, to talk to two minors who have been detained in a very small, cramped lock-up cell following their arrest last June 3 for alleged theft.
