MARAWI CITY, Lanao del Sur, May 04 (PIA) --- The Lanao del Sur Police Provincial Office (LSPPO) has appealed to the public to remain vigilant and take a proactive role to deter crimes in the entire province.
Sr. Supt. Rodolfo Asejo Llorca, LDS Provincial Police Director, made the call after Rashid Mocado Ote was safely released by his abductors last Monday afternoon, May 2.
On April 29, Ote was driving a Mitsubishi Strada with his wife and children and traversing the national highway in Barangay Bubong, Saguiaran town, this province, when armed men flagged down his vehicle.
“But through the call of alert civilians, the vehicle was intercepted by the elements of the Saguiaran Municipal Police Station forcing the armed men to take Ote alone, leaving his wife and children,” Llorca disclosed.
Thus, Llorca urged the public to be attentive and observant with people around their respective communities.
“The public can report any suspicious people or acts to the nearest police station so that the police force can check and act on it immediately,” he said.
He added that the public can also report their concerns by texting their messages to 2920. (Apipa Bagumbaran/PIA-10)
