Nagpatawag ng emergency meeting kahapon si Speaker Martin Romualdez sa Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) at Philippine National Police (PNP) upang pag-usapan ang serye ng mga pananambang at tangkang pagpatay sa mga local official nitong mga nakaraang linggo.
Ayon kay Romualdez, nakakabahala na ang mga ulat hinggil sa high-profile killing o laban sa mga opisyal ng gobyerno na halos nangyayari linggo-linggo.
“We want to know from the PNP and the DILG what steps are being taken to stop these kinds of heinous crimes,” ayon sa mambabatas.
“The way it looks, politics appears to be the motive behind the recent ambuscades because many of the victims are politicians… We will ask the police and the DILG, what’s the problem? Is it intelligence? How can Congress help in solving these crimes?” dagdag pa nito.
Ibinigay naman ni Romuladez ang buong suporta ng Kongreso kay DILG Sec. Benhur Abalos at PNP Chief Gen. Rodolfo Azurin Jr. sa pagpapaigting ng kampanya laban sa kriminalidad. Nakahanda rin daw tumulong ang Kongreso na palakasin pa ang kakayahan ng PNP at siguruhin ang seguridad at kapayapaan sa bansa.
“We gave Sec. Abalos and Gen. Azurin our assurance that the House of Representatives would be open to providing the PNP with adequate funding support and other resources—as well as new legislation if necessary– to buttress the campaign against crime, which is our shared concern,” pahayag ni Speaker Romualdez.
Kaugnay nito, iminungkahi rin ni Romualdez na palakasin ang database ng mga nagmamay-ari ng baril at agad na maparusahan ang mga lumalabag dito.
“These proposals are meant to ensure a safer environment for everyone. This is our commitment to protect the citizens and promote public safety,” ayon sa kongresista.
