The National Police Commission (NAPOLCOM) has expressed full support for Philippine National Police (PNP) Chief Lt. Gen. Jose Melencio Nartatez Jr. after he implemented a resolution reversing the reassignment of senior officials ordered under former PNP Chief Gen. Nicolas Torre III.
NAPOLCOM Vice Chairperson and Executive Officer Commissioner Ralph Calinisan commended Nartatez for enforcing Resolution No. 2025-0531, signed by Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) Secretary and NAPOLCOM Chairperson Juanito Victor Remulla along with Commissioners Calinisan, Beatrice Aurora Vega-Cancio, Ricardo Bernabe, and Josephus Angan.
Calinisan said the move reflects Nartatez’s respect for institutions and the system of checks and balances. “This is a good sign of things to come. The NAPOLCOM pledges 100 percent support to the leadership of Lt. Gen. Nartatez. Truly, Nartatez is the best choice to be the next PNP Chief,” he added.
Nartatez also ordered the relief of P/BGen. Jean Fajardo as PNP spokesperson, stressing that the post should be aligned with the Public Information Office, while Fajardo is currently assigned to the Directorate for Comptrollership.
According to NAPOLCOM, the resolution aims to restore stability and proper command structure within the police force following the leadership transition at Camp Crame.
