The National Police Commission (Napolcom) said it is working ‘double time’ to clear the remaining 1,000 administrative cases against police officers who violated law enforcement rules, with two months left before its self-imposed year-end deadline.
Napolcom Commissioner Rafael Calinisan set the target when he was appointed as the agency’s vice chairperson and executive officer last April.
‘We’re on double time.,’ Calinisan said, speaking in Filipino, in a press briefing on Tuesday. ‘We won’t allow any pending cases by the end of December 2025. In fact, Napolcom now works every Saturday to finish the cases we inherited from 25 years ago.’
‘We have around 1,000 cases left. In all honesty, it’s all systems go. All our lawyers are focused on these cases,’ he added.
Meanwhile, Calinisan reiterated that cases filed since he became executive officer are subject to Office Order No. 2025-012, dated June 2, 2025, which gives Napolcom 60 working days to resolve complaints.
