A SIGNIFICANT drop in crime rate was recorded nationwide from September 18-19, 2022, PNP’s Crime Research Analysis Center reports.
Number of Index crime decreased from 83 on Sunday to 34 last Monday.
In the same manner that the non-index crimes dramatically slid from 721 to 89 recorded cases.
Violators of the Anti-Gambling Law saw the biggest decline attributing to the intensified monitoring against this illegal business.
“We are doubling our efforts to sustain the momentum and to make the public feel confident about their environment. Life is beautiful when we live in peace and order. Your security is our responsibility” PNP Chief Gen. Rodolfo Azurin Jr. said.
Azurin further said that the organization continues to monitor the movement and trend of crime incidence so the PNP can channel its energy and strategy to urgent concerns.
