Acting Las Piñas Police Chief Simnar Gran said that the latest raids on video karera operators were undertaken by the joint action of the various Police Community Precincts (PCPs) and other sections of the Las Piñas Police. He added that the “One Strike Policy” implementation acts as a deterrent to those PCP commanders who will allow and support video karera games operation.

Mayor Aguilar said that the operation against the proliferation of video karera is a positive step in preventing illegal gambling in Las Piñas City, and ensuring a safe and vice-free environment especially for the youth.
