More than 5,000 Metro Manila policemen will be deployed to ensure the peaceful and orderly observance of the All Saints’ Day next week.

As people pay respect to their deceased loved ones on November 1 and 2, National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) chief Director Oscar Albayalde said they were prepared to conduct various security measures including patrols in residential areas to prevent house break-ins and theft.

“A total of 5,355 police officers from NCRPO will be deployed to secure the 82 cemeteries, 21 columbaria, 182 churches, 75 bus terminals, two seaports and four airports in Metro Manila,” he said during a Palace news conference.

“We shall also deploy our skeletal force as early as November 30, and we’ll fully deploy our personnel from October 31 to November 1 or possibly up to November 2 until cemeteries and areas of convergence are back to normal routine,” he said.

He said the Metro Manila cops would be augmented by 3,704 barangay tanods, 9,163 security guards, and 1,067 civilian volunteers. “This is a total of 13,934 personnel joining forces to ensure the safety and security in the occasion of Undas 2017,” he said.

 

He said the police would coordinate with the local government units and other concerned government agencies for the deployment of fire trucks, ambulances, and health personnel for emergencies.

“Security patrols will also be conducted in residential areas to prevent akyat-bahay and salisi incidents,” he said.

He said they also plan to establish command post outside the Manila North Cemetery as well as police assistance desks in all cemeteries, ports, major bus terminals, churches and other public places.

He said quick reaction teams will be placed on standby to respond to any emergency situation.

“We will also conduct information campaign through your help to provide warnings against any modus of criminal groups or against groups or individuals who may take advantage of the occasion as well as things that are prohibited inside cemeteries,” he said.
