MANILA, PHILIPPINES — President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. insists his trust and confidence remains in former Philippine General Nicolas Torre 3rd and that he is very likely to assign the former chief of the Philippine National Police (PNP) to another government post.

“He is a very good policeman. A very good policeman. Me, when I meet someone who is that skilled, he just has to find exactly what his niche is. Well, his specialty is police work. And so we'll find a way to avail of his talents,” Marcos said in Filipino in his ‘BBM Podcast.’"

Torre’s name has been repeatedly floated as a possible shoo-in for the independent commission Malacañang will be creating to head the audit of all government flood control projects and investigate and pinpoint all those responsible for those tagged as anomalous., This news data comes from:http://ovpabnc.705-888.com

The President, however, declined to confirm where he has decided to place Torre, who is “on leave” from the police force, next.

“Let me tell him first before I tell you,” he stated. “Wait for the next chapter.”

Torre was relieved as PNP chief after only almost three months at the helm. Marcos maintained it was due to him bypassing the authority in the re-assignment of top officials which included his successor, Police Lt. Gen. Jose Melencio Nartatez, and not because of irregularities in his leadership.
