Former Philippine Police Chief Torre's spokesperson has been dismissed!
Acting Director of the Philippine National Police, Nataltez, has removed Colonel Jean Fajardo from the position of spokesperson for the Philippine National Police, and decided that media affairs will be handled by the Office of the Press.
Nataltez stated that Rudolph Tuani will continue to serve as the head of the Press Office and will also act as the spokesperson.
"The police department has a Press Office and a spokesperson, they seem the same, why do we need a spokesperson? The Press Office is here, he is handling the repository of reports and preparing these reports for the public."
Nataltez believes that only one person in the Philippine National Police can represent the entire institution, that is the police chief, "for example, at the national headquarters, the spokesperson should be the police chief and the Press Office."
Fajardo was appointed as the spokesperson of the police department in 2022, and she was reappointed after Torre took office three months ago, being appointed as the Auditor General while also serving as the spokesperson.
