Querol urges SWAT: Maintain Boracay peace and order

BORACAY ISLAND, Aklan- Chief Supt. Cipriano Querol, police regional director for Western Visayas, urged the newly-activated Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) of the province to give emphasis in maintaining peace and order, particularly in the Boracay resort island.

The police official was at the Aklan Provincial Police Office in Camp Pastor in Kalibo for the recently held graduation ceremony of the 24 newly-trained SWAT members.

Querol said he would like the focus to the entry of illegal drugs in the resort island because of the police intelligence report he received.
According to the intelligence report, illegal drugs will be flooded to the resort island in summer.

Querol said that although the police in the past have also been vigilant in monitoring the illegal drugs in Boracay, there are still some isolated cases of prohibited drug activities.

Because of the said intelligence report, the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) will conduct illegal drugs awareness campaign in the province on April 1.

While in Aklan, Querol also graced the Barangay Peacekeeping Action Teams (BPAT) trainors' training.
