PNP General Manuel Farías, head of the Piura Police Region, said that, of the 335 police officers who graduated from the PNP Technical Professional Higher Education School of Piura, only 100 police officers will remain in Piura and will be distributed in the different provinces of the region.
The officer regretted that the majority of police officers who graduated have been assigned to other cities. “We regret that 235 police officers are already being placed at the disposal of Tumbes, Cajamarca and Lima, respectively, and we are left with one hundred and with the hundred we will see how we distribute them throughout the region,” said Farías.
Regarding the investigation into the deaths of the two medical students in Piura, Farías indicated that they have carried out tests on the mobile equipment. “These are two cases that are under investigation. All the tests and examinations have been carried out to determine conclusively, not only with what has been found at the crime scene, but also with the cell phones, because there are messages that have been sent to a person and we are investigating that,” he said.
