Press Release: PRO 9 Apprehends 158 Wanted Persons in Sustained Law Enforcement Operations

In a series of coordinated law enforcement operations conducted from July 1 to 24, 2025, the Police Regional Office (PRO) 9, under the leadership of Police Brigadier General Eleazar P Matta, arrested a total of 158 wanted individuals, including 51 Most Wanted Persons (MWPs) and 107 Other Wanted Persons (OWPs), across various areas in Zamboanga Peninsula.

These arrests reflect continued commitment of the Philippine National Police (PNP) to upholding the law and maintaining public safety. The operations were carried out in collaboration with local police units, national support agencies, and through information gathered from the community.

“These successful operations are in line with the national policing agenda outlined by our Chief, PNP Police General Nicolas D. Torre III, who emphasized the relentless drive to pursue all wanted individuals. He stated that the PNP is all out in its operations against wanted persons and will continue to intensify efforts in this regard. It’s only a matter of time before we get them. We’ll reexamine the baseline that we have, what we know about these people. We’ll focus on these. We are truly committed to ensuring that those hiding from the law will be brought to justice,” said PBGen Eleazar P Matta, Regional Director, PRO 9.

The series of operations, launched across Zamboanga del Norte, Zamboanga del Sur, Zamboanga Sibugay, and Zamboanga City, reinforces proactive strategy of this PRO to maintain peace and order, consistent with the broader vision of the PNP to a safer and more secure nation.

The Police Regional Office 9 continues to urge the public to remain vigilant and to report suspicious activities or information that may lead to the arrest of remaining fugitives. Together, with community support and inter-agency cooperation, PRO 9 is determined to make every province under its jurisdiction a zone of peace, security, and justice.

As we experience the rainy season, let us make sure our drinking water stays safe!

Contaminated water can lead to illness, especially during the wet season when floodwater and runoff may affect supplies. Here's your friendly reminder to:
✅ Boil tap water before drinking
✅ Store clean water in sealed containers
✅ Regularly disinfect tanks and dispensers
✅ Stay alert for public health advisories

Let’s stay healthy and hydrated—rain or shine!

🚨DOH: PANATILIHING LIGTAS SA KONTAMINASYON ANG INUMING TUBIG LALO NA NGAYONG MAULAN🚨

Sa panahon ng matinding pag-ulan, posibleng may kontaminasyon ang inuming tubig mula sa mga nasirang water at sewage pipes na nalubog sa baha.

Mahalagang tiyaking safe ang iniinom na tubig sa bahay man o sa evacuation center upang makaiwas sa sakit tulad ng cholera, diarrhea, at leptospirosis.

Ayon sa DOH Health Emergency Alert Reporting System, umabot sa 28,114 ang bilang ng mga evacuees sa 370 evacuation centers sa mga rehiyon ng‭ NCR,‬‭ I,‬‭ II,‬‭ III,‬‭ CALABARZON,‬‭ MIMAROPA,‬‭ V,‬‭ VI,‬‭ VII,‬‭ VIII,‬ IX,‬‭ X,‬‭ XI,‬‭ XII,‬‭ Caraga‬‭ at‬‭ CAR dahil sa Bagyong Crising at Southwest Monsoon. Kaya nakahanda na ang mga chlorine tablets bilang isa sa mga emergency commodities ng DOH para may malinis na inuming tubig ang mga lumikas.

Maaari ring pakuluan ang tubig sa loob ng 2 minuto bago inumin bukod sa paggamit ng chlorine tablets.
