TACLOBAN CITY, LEYTE, Philippines — The National Police Commission (Napolcom) in Eastern Visayas has warned police officers about engaging in partisan social media posts.

Lawyer Risty Sibay, Napolcom regional director for Eastern Visayas, said that police officers are prohibited from engaging in partisan political activities under existing laws and regulations.

“The ethical conduct of the PNP is governed by Republic Act No. 6713 and supplemented by the PNP Ethical Doctrine Manual. It is clear in these guidelines that PNP personnel should remain nonpartisan,” he said.
