Nagpahayag ng pagsuporta si House Speaker Martin Romualdez kay Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) Chief Nicolas Torre III, matapos siyang pangalanan bilang susunod na hepe ng Philippine National Police (PNP).

Sa kaniyang pahayag nitong Huwebes, Mayo 29, 2025, inilarawan ni Romualdez si Torre bilang isa umanong matapang at ma-prinsipyong opisyal.

"General Torre is stepping into this role with a record that speaks for itself. He is principled and fearless officer, the kind of leader the PNP needs to restore credibility, enforce the law without law or favor, and protect the Filipino people with professionalism and respect," ani Romualdez.

Pinuri din ni Romualdez ang hindi raw pagpapaapekto ni Torre sa publiko sa kabila ng kabi-kabilang kritisismong kaniyang natanggap.

"General Torre's steady hand in critical situations shows he is not only unafraid to act, but also committed to doing so within the bounds of the law. That kind of leadership is rare, and exactly what the police force needs today," anang House Speaker.

Matatandaang nitong Huwebes, nang kinumpirma ni Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin na si Torre ang magiging ika-39 hepe ng pulisya kasunod ng nakatakdang pagreretiro ni PNP Chief Rommel Marbil.
