DAVAO CITY, Philippines (April 4)— The controversial North Cotabato police provincial commander has been named new Davao City Police Office director, replacing P./Supt Michael Dubria.
Dubria’s replacement? Senior Superintendent Alexander Tagum.

Police Regional Office (PRO)-Davao director Chief Superintendent Manuel Gaerlan Monday (April3) announced Tagum’s appointment as new DCPO director, as Dubria was promoted to the Polcie national headquarters in Camp Crame.
Tagum will lead the 12 police stations of the city’s 182 barangays
