He also imposed a policy on “no use of PNP private vehicles without plate number or conduction sticker” for PNP personnel.

Gamboa earlier announced that he declared a ban on golf playing for police officers during weekdays as the time-consuming sport could interfere with their public service.For the PNP’s anti-drug campaign, police will revisit its strategy on arresting high-value targets, Gamboa said. “Primary consideration when it comes to the mandate of PNP is really our campaign against illegal drugs. I’d like to revisit on our strategy and probably sinasabi ko nga , let us go for high-value targets,” Gamboa said.

Gamboa noted that apprehending high-value targets linked to illegal drugs requires surveillance and cooperation with the judiciary.“And there is an intervention of another branch of government so you have to convince the judiciary na indeed na merong laman itong bahay o lugar na ito . So hindi ibig sabihin na as PNP, na basta mo na lang lusubin ,” Gamboa said.

Gamboa assumed the post of officer-in-charge after PNP chief Gen. Oscar Albayalde resigned on Monday amid the Senate inquiry on the controversial 2013 Pampanga drug sting. /je
