NAPOLCOM pushes weekend sessions amid case backlog
The National Police Commission (NAPOLCOM) will hold sessions every Saturday, starting October 4, to accelerate the resolution of summary dismissal cases and clear a 25-year backlog.
NAPOLCOM Commissioner Rafael Vicente Calinisan announced the continuous deliberations of pending cases to meet his goal of zero backlog by December 2025.
These sessions will take place at the NAPOLCOM Building in Quezon City, with regional officials able to join virtually via Zoom.
Drafts of cases will be distributed at least five days prior to the sessions to allow for adequate review and feedback.
Commissioner Calinisan emphasized the commitment to ensuring accountability and integrity within the police service, stating that "justice delayed is justice denied."
He highlighted that the commission is currently resolving cases dating back two decades and aims to eliminate all case backlogs by the end of the year, even if it requires Saturday en banc meetings.
