Former Molo police chief takes over La Paz PNP

By Jennifer P. Rendon

The Iloilo City Police Office has designated a new officer to lead the Iloilo City Police Station (ICPS) 2, also known as the La Paz Police Station.

Capt. Gimel Acuesta formally assumed command of the ICPS 2, replacing Lt. Col. Lorenez Losaria, who was designated to temporarily head Iloilo City Police Station 9 in Jaro.

With Acuesta’s designation, Losaria will now focus on his role as deputy city director for operations of the ICPO.

Losaria had temporarily assumed leadership of Police Station 2 following the relief of Capt. Jeffrey Delgado on Jan. 8.

Acuesta previously served as chief of Iloilo City Police Station 4, also known as the Molo Police Station.

After his relief from Police Station 4, Acuesta was designated officer in charge of Police Station 9 in Jaro.

He was later appointed deputy chief of Police Station 9 before his recent reassignment to Police Station 2.
