Palace: No need for PNP chief to explain crime surge

As far as Malacañang is concerned, there is no more need for embattled Philippine National Police (PNP) chief Director General Alan Purisima to explain the resurgence of crimes as well as the alleged involvement of policemen in criminal activities, an official said yesterday. “Let us go by what the President said the last time that he was asked about PNP chief Purisima,” deputy presidential spokesperson Abigail Valte said, adding that questions about the rise in crime have been addressed adequately. She said the PNP has designated spokespersons and “we leave that to his better judgment if he (Purisima) will personally comment on it.”
