PNP adopts SC guidelines on use of body cams
MANILA, Philippines — The Philippine National Police has set up a technical working group (TWG) that would incorporate the guidelines issued by the Supreme Court on the use of body-worn cameras in police operations into the police operating procedures.
Gen. Guillermo Eleazar, chief of the PNP, on Sunday tasked Lt. Gen. Israel Ephraim Dickson, chief of police operations, to initiate a massive information drive among police personnel on the new rules issued over the weekend by the Supreme Court.
Eleazar pointed out that the mandatory use of body-worn cameras in police operations would “normalize the concepts of transparency and accountability in the minds and actions of every policeman.”
