POLICE Lieutenant Colonel Noel Polines was relieved from his post effective April 15 after he completed his two-year tenure as chief of Silay City Police Station in Negros Occidental.

Police Major Edison Garcia, public information officer of Negros Occidental Police Provincial Office (Nocppo), confirmed this Tuesday, April 23.

Polines was relieved upon the order of Police Colonel Romeo Baleros, Nocppo director, and was moved to Kalibo, Aklan.
