PRO-7 pushes for transfer of 29 cops

ABOUT 29 police officers were recommended for transfer from Central Visayas to Basilan, the Police Regional Office (PRO-7) said yesterday.

Chief Supt. Noli Taliño, PRO-7 chief, said he was requested by Camp Crame to submit a list of police officers who were reinstated after an investigation.
