After Greenbelt 5 heist, cops boost CCTV system

One week after a botched robbery at Greenbelt 5 in Makati City, police have beefed up their surveillance system in crime-prone areas in Metro Manila.

Radio dzBB’s Benjie Liwanag Jr. reported that Metro Manila police director Chief Superintendent Roberto Rosales said the system can access about 2,000 areas in the metropolis.

According to Rosales, the new additional closed-circuit television (CCTV) monitoring equipment will be sourced from some P40 million in “donations" from the private sector.

He added this will also complement the global positioning system (GPS) equipment used by mobile police units.

Rosales said the beefed-up CCTV and monitoring equipment will be housed in a two-story building that will also serve as a tactical operations and intelligence center.

The center will also serve as a crisis management committee if the need arises, the dzBB report said.

Last Sunday, armed men suspected to be from the Alvin Flores Group posed as lawmen before breaking into the Greenbelt 5 mall and robbing a store selling Rolex watches.

One of the robbers was killed in a shootout.
