ILOILO CITY – Chief Supt. Wilfredo Dulay, newly designated police director, indicated the imminent relief of acting Aklan police director Supt. William Macavinta because his two-year of duty is already up.
Over popular Sunday program Reklamo Publiko in Sarabia Manor Hotel and Convention Center, Dulay said the relief order would take effect after the Kalibo Ati-Atihan festival.
“The relief is not due to any political motives. He (Macavinta) has to be relieved from his post after his two years of service. He had exceeded his allowable stay in the province,” he stressed.
Macavinta, a Philippine National Police (PNP) Academy ’87 graduate, replaced in 2005 Senior Supt. Ramon Cariño after the latter assumed the post of Supt. Odelardo Magayanes who was killed during a shooting rampage near the Kalibo police station on January 16, 2005.
Dulay said the relief is a normal PNP command reshuffling, though, he believes PNP Director General chief Oscar Calderon decided to move Macavinta because he has been Aklan police director in an acting capacity for two years now.
“The designation of Macavinta in 2005 is only temporary, while we are awaiting the appointment of a permanent provincial director,” said Dulay, adding, Macavinta had done his part to serve the people of Aklan.
Macavinta, a native of Numancia, is the third official to lead the Aklan police under the more than two-year-old administration of Governor Carlito Marquez.
Macavinta was formerly the chief of the Northern Metro Manila Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) prior to his assignment here in Aklan. He was also a licensed criminologist and was the former chief of the Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) in Metro Manila police districts.
Dulay, who replaced outgoing Chief Supt. Geary Barias last Friday, said he would deploy more policemen, at least three platoons, to secure the Ati-Atihan festival from January 15-21.
“The additional personnel and a strong security force is necessary to help maintain peace and order during the festival,” he pointed out.
As to Asean delegates expected to flock to the resort island of Boracay after the summit in Cebu City, Dulay stressed the PNP is drawing up plans to guarantee the security of foreign dignitaries, despite travel warnings issued by United States, Britain and Australia.
Last December, Task Group Boracay was created to ensure the safety of the island in a Memorandum of Agreement between the AFP, PNP, National Intelligence Coordinating Agency (NICA), PCG and the Department of Transportation and Communications (DoTC).
Outgoing regional police director Barias now heads the Directorial for Investigation and Detection Management (DIDM) post in Camp Crame replacing Chief Supt. Ed Doromal, the new head of the PNP's Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG).
Dulay, a native of Pangasinan, was assigned at the Police Regional Office 4. He was the former director of the Legal Service in Camp Crame and former Iloilo provincial director in 1995.
