Classmates to join Bato in Munti

Justice Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre II has endorsed the appointment of three retired police generals as deputy directors of the Bureau of Corrections (BuCor).

Aguirre identified the three as former Calabarzon regional police chief Valfrie Tabian, who is the current BuCor officer in charge, former Bicol police chief Melvin Ramon Buenafe and former major crimes investigator Heriberto Olitoquit.

The three are all former Philippine Military Academy classmates of Philippine National Police Director General Ronald dela Rosa, whom President Duterte said would also assume the BuCor helm in March or April next year, Aguirre said.
