HUSBAND AND WIFE AMONG DAGUPAN’S MOST WANTED ARRESTED IN CHILD ABUSE CASE

Under the leadership of PGen Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., Chief, Philippine National Police (PNP), police authorities in Dagupan City have arrested a husband and wife who were both listed among the city’s Most Wanted Persons in connection with a case involving the alleged abuse of a child.

The 49-year-old husband, ranked Top 9, and his 42-year-old wife, ranked Top 10 among the city-level Most Wanted Persons, were arrested separately on October 2, 2026, during coordinated police operations in Dagupan City.

The couple were arrested by virtue of Warrants of Arrest issued by a Regional Trial Court on September 22, 2026, for alleged violation of Section 10(a) of Republic Act 7610, or the Special Protection of Children Against Abuse, Exploitation and Discrimination Act. The court set a recommended bail of ₱160,000.00 for each accused.

The PNP emphasized that the warrants were served in accordance with established procedures, with the operations properly documented and the accused informed of the nature of the warrants and their constitutional rights.

Chief PNP PGen Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. said the arrests demonstrate the importance of sustained police coordination in ensuring that court processes are properly carried out, particularly in cases involving the protection of children.

“We have a duty to act when there is a valid warrant, but we also have a duty to do it the right way—with respect for the law and for the rights of everyone involved. Sa mga kasong may kinalaman sa mga bata, we must be especially careful and responsible because their protection remains a shared responsibility,” PGen Nartatez said.

The husband and wife underwent medical examination following their arrest and were subsequently placed under police custody for documentation and appropriate court proceedings.

The accomplishment is consistent with the PNP Focused Agenda, particularly the Enhanced Managing Police Operations (EMPO), which promotes coordinated, accountable, and lawful police operations. It likewise supports the administration of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. in strengthening public safety and protecting vulnerable members of society.

The PNP will continue to coordinate with the courts and concerned government agencies in ensuring that cases are pursued through proper legal processes, in keeping with its commitment to the “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.”

RECENT ROBBERY-HOLDUP SUBJECT ARRESTED BEFORE FLIGHT AT NAIA

Under the leadership of Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., Chief, Philippine National Police (PNP), a timely exchange of verified information among police units and airport authorities resulted in the apprehension of a robbery-hold-up suspect at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 3 in Pasay City on October 2, 2026.

The police response began after information about a robbery-hold-up incident in Malolos City, Bulacan, on October 1 was relayed to concerned units. Subsequent validation showed that the suspect had proceeded to NAIA Terminal 3 and had checked in for a flight bound for Cagayan de Oro.

With the information confirmed, personnel of the PNP Aviation Security Group, Police Regional Office 3, and other concerned units coordinated with airport security and the airline. The joint response led to the interception of the suspect at the Domestic Departure Area before the scheduled flight.

The suspect was placed under police custody and turned over to the concerned units for documentation and appropriate legal proceedings.

Chief PNP PGen Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. emphasized that effective policing also means making the right connections between units when information crosses jurisdictional lines.

“Hindi natatapos sa isang lugar ang trabaho ng pulis kapag may kailangang maaksiyunan. We have to connect the information, verify it, and act on it at the right time. That kind of coordination can make a real difference in keeping people safe,” PGen Nartatez said.

The operation reflects the PNP Focused Agenda, particularly its Enhanced Managing Police Operations (EMPO), through the timely validation, coordination, and deployment of police resources in response to emerging situations. It also supports the peace and security priorities of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., especially in maintaining safe and orderly public spaces and transportation facilities.

The PNP will continue strengthening coordination among its units and partner agencies to ensure that police action remains responsive and properly guided by verified information, consistent with the commitment to a Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.

67 FI****MS TAKEN OUT OF LOOSE CIRCULATION IN 24-HOUR WV POLICE DRIVE

Under the leadership of Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., Chief, Philippine National Police (PNP), police units in Western Visayas (WV) accounted for 67 fi****ms and 12 explosives in just 24 hours, strengthening efforts to keep fi****ms out of situations where they could be used to harm people or facilitate criminal activities.

The accomplishment was recorded from 6:00 AM of October 3 to 5:59 AM of October 4, 2026, through police operations, voluntary surrender, house visitations, and coordination with fi***rm holders and communities across the region.

Of the 67 fi****ms accounted for, 60 were voluntarily surrendered, two were confiscated during police operations, and five were turned over following house visitations involving fi****ms with expired registrations. Police units also conducted 74 search warrant-related activities, one of which resulted in an arrest and the recovery of fi****ms.

The result carries added significance as fi****ms remain among the weapons commonly used in criminal activities and violent incidents. By bringing more fi****ms into police accountability—particularly through voluntary surrender and proper turnover—the campaign helps reduce the possibility that unaccounted or improperly documented fi****ms could later be used in crimes.

The sustained effort is aligned with the PNP’s Focused Agenda, particularly its Enhanced Managing Police Operations (EMPO) approach, which emphasizes verification, coordination, and appropriate police action while encouraging fi***rm holders to comply with legal requirements.

Chief PNP Gen. Nartatez said the value of the operation is not measured only by the number of fi****ms accounted for, but also by the incidents that may be prevented when fi****ms are properly documented or safely turned over.

“Every fi***rm we bring into proper accountability is a potential risk we are able to address before it becomes a problem. Hindi natin kailangang hintayin na magamit sa krimen ang isang baril bago natin ito aksyunan. When police, communities, and fi***rm holders work together, prevention becomes much more effective,” Gen. Nartatez said.

The accomplishment also supports the continuing gains of Project R.T.T. 3389 (Restrict, Track, and Turn-In), which covered all 3,389 barangays in Western Visayas and strengthened coordination among police units, local governments, barangay officials, communities, and fi***rm holders in accounting for loose fi****ms.

The PNP continues to support the administration of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. through sustained, lawful, and community-based police operations that address potential risks before they develop into incidents. The effort reflects the Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman, where police action is focused not only on responding to crime but also on preventing it.
