HAIL TO THE CHIEF
PNP
OIC PDDG Leonardo Espina led the Uniformed and Non-Uniformed personnel
of the Philippine National Police in welcoming the appointment by
President Benigno Aquino III of Police Director Ricardo C Marquez as the
20th chief PNP.
“General Marquez is a hardworking officer with a proven track record in all his previous assignments” Espina said.
Espina will handover command of the PNP to Marquez on Thursday, July 16, before he officially retires from the police service.
Prior
to his designation as Chief PNP, Marquez, a member of the PMA
“Sandigan” Class of 1982, is erstwhile, the PNP Director for Operations
(DO).
Before
he was designated as PNP Director for Operations, Marquez used to be
the PRO1 Director in the Ilocos-Pangasinan region where he launched a
massive campaign against criminality, particularly against
motorcycle-riding criminals, drugs and partisan armed groups.
As
the Director for Operations, he supervised security operations for
recent international events held in the country, most prominently, the
Papal Visit and Apostolic Journey of Pope Francis last January, and the
series of high level international conferences leading to the 2015 APEC
Summit.
Marquez will retire on August 2016. (PNP-PIO)
