PNP, UNIFIED 911 NET DRUNK SUSPECT FOR CHILD ABUSE, ILLEGAL FIREARM, AND RESISTANCE IN QC

The Philippine National Police, under the command of PNP Chief Police General PGEN Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., arrested a 46-year-old male former security guard for violation of RA 7610 (child abuse), RA 10591 (illegal possession of firearm and ammunition), and Article 151 (resistance and disobedience to a person in authority) in front of his residence in Brgy. Gulod, Novaliches, Quezon City at around 6:30 PM on April 9, 2026, following an emergency call coursed through the Unified 911 system, a crucial public safety platform of the Department of the Interior and Local Government under Secretary Juanito Victor C. Remulla Jr.

Police investigation disclosed that a heated altercation erupted between the intoxicated suspect and his spouse inside their home, prompting the latter to leave to avoid further confrontation. The suspect then turned his aggression toward a 15-year-old female minor seated outside, physically assaulting her by kicking and punching while hurling degrading and offensive words. He subsequently retrieved a firearm from inside the house, pointed it at the victim, and threatened to kill her, causing fear and distress before the victim was rescued by a family member.

Acting on the report of a concerned citizen who alerted authorities through the emergency hotline, personnel of QCPD Novaliches Police Station 4 immediately responded, leading to the suspect’s arrest. During the operation, the suspect resisted and attempted to flee, resulting in a brief foot chase and physical struggle before he was subdued. Recovered from his possession were a caliber .38 revolver without serial number, five live ammunitions, a black leather holster, and a gray lunch bag. The minor victim is now under the care of her mother, while the suspect remains in police custody pending inquest proceedings before the Quezon City Prosecutor’s Office.

PNP Chief PGEN Nartatez Jr. emphasized the organization’s firm stance against violence, especially those involving minors: “We will act decisively against individuals who inflict harm and threaten lives, particularly the most vulnerable members of our communities. The law will take its full course.“

“Walang puwang sa ating lipunan ang pananakit sa mga bata. Sinumang maglakas-loob na gumawa nito ay hindi makakatakas sa kamay ng batas,” he added.

This operation reflects the PNP Focused Agenda—an operational framework of transformation designed to make police service more responsive and accountable, with emphasis on Enhanced Managing Police Operations and Active Community Support, as demonstrated by the swift response to a citizen’s report and the immediate intervention that prevented further harm.

“Public vigilance plays a critical role in crime prevention, and we encourage everyone to report incidents without hesitation. Your cooperation helps save lives. Mahalaga ang pakikiisa ng komunidad. Sa pagtutulungan, napipigilan ang karahasan at napapanagot ang mga salarin,” he further stated.

As the PNP intensifies its efforts to protect women and children from abuse and threats to their safety under the directive of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., it continues to assure the public of “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong mabilis, tapat, at nararamdaman.”

PNP ORDERS FULL-SCALE PROBE INTO PNPA HAZING; ACTIVITIES SUSPENDED, 22 VICTIMS IDENTIFIED, 3 SUSPECTS IN CUSTODY

The Philippine National Police (PNP) has launched a full-scale and uncompromising investigation into the reported hazing incident involving cadets of the Philippine National Police Academy (PNPA), following the directive of PNP Chief, Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr.

The Chief PNP directed Police Lieutenant General Bernard M. Banac, Deputy Chief for Administration (TDCA), together with the Directorate for Investigation and Detective Management (DIDM) as the Office of Primary Responsibility (OPR), in coordination with the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) and the PNP Health Service, to ensure a thorough, impartial, and evidence-based investigation.

The case stemmed from a follow-up operation by the CIDG Cavite Provincial Field Unit after reports of alleged maltreatment inside the PNPA. The operation led to the arrest of involved cadets and the recovery of items now submitted for forensic examination.

As an immediate directive, all cadet activities at the PNPA were suspended effective immediately to give way to the ongoing investigation, ensure preservation of evidence, and safeguard the welfare of cadets.

Initial findings revealed that twenty-two (22) Fourth Class cadets sustained injuries allegedly inflicted by three (3) Third Class cadets in an incident that occurred on April 3, 2026 at the PNPA. The victims were immediately given medical attention.

Medico-legal findings indicate that the injuries sustained have an estimated healing period of approximately fourteen (14) days. Further body checks conducted by the PNP Health Service also revealed additional cadets with minor injuries, which are being validated as part of the expanded investigation.

The three (3) identified suspects are now under the custody of the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group and have undergone inquest proceedings for violation of Republic Act No. 11053 or the Anti-Hazing Act of 2018.

Ongoing investigation has likewise unearthed possible prior hazing incidents, which are now being consolidated to ensure full accountability of all responsible individuals.

PNP Chief PGEN Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. has ordered the strict enforcement of command responsibility, directing that lapses in leadership, supervision, or reporting be addressed through appropriate administrative actions.

The PNP also emphasized that PNPA submits regular weekly reports to the Chief PNP on cadet discipline and welfare, including hazing-related concerns, and that corresponding reminders have consistently been issued to leadership.

A comprehensive review of PNPA policies, systems, and training protocols is now underway to strengthen safeguards and prevent recurrence of similar incidents.

Following compliance with initial directives, PNPA activities are set to resume on April 11, 2026, subject to strict monitoring and additional control measures.

In a firm statement, PGEN Nartatez. said, “Walang puwang ang hazing sa PNP. Walang pagtatakip. Walang palusot. Pananagutin ang lahat ng sangkot.”

He added: “Those found responsible will face full legal accountability, administrative sanctions, and the loss of the privilege to serve in the institution.”

The PNP assures the public that there will be no cover-up, no leniency, and no exceptions. All those found responsible will face the full force of the law, administrative sanctions, and possible dismissal from the service.

The Philippine National Police remains steadfast in upholding the rule of law, protecting human rights, and ensuring full accountability within its ranks.

₱101.5-M SHABU SEIZED; 6 DRUG SUSPECTS NABBED IN TWO SEPARATE OPERATIONS

The Philippine National Police (PNP), in coordination with the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA), successfully conducted two separate anti-illegal drug operations on April 9, 2026, resulting in the arrest of six suspects and the confiscation of large volumes of suspected shabu.

In Parañaque City, a joint buy-bust operation led to the arrest of five newly identified high-value individuals in a residential area of Sun Valley. Operatives arrested alias “Bossing,” a 35-year-old female, along with four cohorts, all Filipino nationals, during the coordinated operation of PNP and PDEA anti-illegal drug units.

Authorities seized more than 13 kilograms of suspected shabu with standard drug price (SDP) of ₱ 91,045,200.00, along with fi****ms, ammunition, cash, and other non-drug evidence.

In a separate operation in Brgy. San Jose, Dulag, Leyte, joint elements of RPDEU8, together with PDEA RO8 and other support units, conducted a buy-bust operation at around 11:35 PM, resulting in the arrest of a 45-year-old drug suspect listed as Rank No. 3 in the regional priority target list.

Confiscated during the operation were approximately 1,547 grams of suspected shabu with SDP of ₱10,519,600.00, along with buy-bust money, boodle money, and other personal items.

All pieces of evidence were properly marked and inventoried at the place of arrest in the presence of required witnesses, in accordance with established procedures. Charges for violation of the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002 are being prepared against the arrested suspects.

PNP Chief, Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., commended the operating units for the successful operations, highlighting the importance of strong coordination and sustained efforts in the anti-drug campaign.

“Hindi titigil ang PNP sa pagtugis sa mga sangkot sa ilegal na droga. We will continue to act decisively, within the bounds of the law, to protect our communities,” PGEN Nartatez said.

He also emphasized that continuous collaboration among law enforcement agencies remains key to addressing the illegal drug problem.

“Ang laban kontra ilegal na droga ay tuloy-tuloy. We owe it to the Filipino people to ensure safer communities,” he added.

The PNP reiterates its commitment to strengthening anti-drug operations nationwide in line with its vision of a Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.

Dili kini pagtabon sa kamatuoran, kondili pagsunod sa balaod aron maprotektahan ang katungod sa matag tawo bisan paman kini suspetsado, biktima, o saksi.

𝐀𝐍𝐈𝐀 𝐀𝐍𝐆 𝐌𝐆𝐀 𝐋𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐋 𝐍𝐆𝐀 𝐑𝐀𝐒𝐎𝐍:

1. 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐀 𝐏𝐑𝐈𝐕𝐀𝐂𝐘 𝐀𝐂𝐓 𝐎𝐅 𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟐 (𝐑𝐄𝐏𝐔𝐁𝐋𝐈𝐂 𝐀𝐂𝐓 𝐍𝐎. 𝟏𝟎𝟏𝟕𝟑)
Ubos niini nga balaod, ang "personal information" sa usa ka tawo giisip nga sensitibo. Ang pagbutyag sa pangalan o hulagway nga walay pagtugot mahimong makalapas sa privacy sa usa ka indibidwal, ilabi na kon wala pa mapamatud-an ang sala sa korte.

2. 𝐏𝐍𝐏 𝐅𝐑𝐄𝐄𝐃𝐎𝐌 𝐎𝐅 𝐈𝐍𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 (𝐅𝐎𝐈) 𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐔𝐀𝐋 & 𝐌𝐄𝐃𝐈𝐀 𝐑𝐄𝐋𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 𝐏𝐎𝐋𝐈𝐂𝐘
Ang PNP naay internal nga lagda nga nagdili sa pagpakita sa nawong sa mga dinakpan (suspects) sa media o pagbutyag sa ilang identity. Tumong niini nga malikayan ang "trial by publicity" ug aron dili madaot ang dungog sa usa ka tawo samtang nagpadayon pa ang imbestigasyon.

3. 𝐁𝐀𝐓𝐀𝐊𝐀𝐍𝐆 𝐁𝐀𝐋𝐀𝐎𝐃 𝐎 𝐊𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐓𝐔𝐒𝐘𝐎𝐍 𝐒𝐀 𝐏𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐏𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐒 (𝐁𝐈𝐋𝐋 𝐎𝐅 𝐑𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐒)
Presumption of Innocence: Sa atong Konstitusyon, ang matag tawo giisip nga "innocent until proven guilty." Kon imantala dayon ang pangalan ug hulagway sa usa ka suspetsado, morag gihukman na siya sa publiko bisan wala pa ang desisyon sa korte.

4. 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐓𝐄𝐊𝐒𝐘𝐎𝐍 𝐒𝐀 𝐌𝐆𝐀 𝐁𝐈𝐊𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐀 𝐔𝐆 𝐒𝐀𝐊𝐒𝐈
Adunay mga espesyal nga balaod (sama sa R.A. 9262 para sa mga babaye ug R.A. 7610 para sa mga bata) nga higpit nga nagdili sa pagbutyag sa identity sa mga biktima aron malikayan ang dugang trauma ug aron maprotektahan sila gikan sa posibleng pagpanimalos.

5. 𝐒𝐄𝐆𝐔𝐑𝐈𝐃𝐀𝐃 𝐒𝐀 𝐎𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐒𝐘𝐎𝐍
Usahay, kon i-post dayon ang pangalan sa suspetsado, ang iyang mga kauban o "accomplices" mahimong makabantay ug makaikyas sa dili pa nato sila madakpan.

Ang among serbisyo tinuod ug mabatyagan, ug ang pagtuman sa balaod mao ang among giya aron masiguro nga ang hustisya mahatag sa saktong paagi.

Ang kalinaw sa atong komunidad nagsugod sa atong panaghiusa ug saktong kahibalo. Ang TERORISMO walay dapit sa atong katilingban! Kini usa ka ilegal nga paggamit sa kusog, pagpangatake, ug pagpanghadlok sa mga inosenteng sibilyan aron lamang sa pagkab-ot sa ilang dautang tinguha.

A total of 9,810 individuals were recorded for violations of local ordinances for the latest monitoring period, bringing the cumulative total to 53,293 apprehensions since the start of implementation on April 6, 2026.

Breakdown shows drinking and smoking in public places at 2,857, followed by roaming without shirts at 886, curfew violations among minors at 802, and karaoke beyond allowed time at 220, while 5,045 were recorded under other ordinance violations.

PNP Chief, Police General Jose Melencio C.

He added that the initiative supports the PNP Focused Agenda under Enhanced Managing Police Operations and is aligned with the peace and order direction of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. The PNP also acknowledged the support of the Department of the Interior and Local Government in strengthening coordination with Local Government Units and barangays.

The Safer Cities Initiative continues to focus on addressing common ordinance violations through coordinated enforcement with LGUs and barangays, reinforcing discipline and community order.

Authorities reminded the public to strictly observe local ordinances to avoid penalties and inconvenience as enforcement operations remain sustained nationwide.

The PNP said the initiative will be expanded nationwide as part of its continuing commitment under “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.”
