THEIR DUTY, THEIR SACRIFICE: PNP HONORS THREE FALLEN POLICE HEROES

The Philippine National Police (PNP) honors the courage and sacrifice of three police personnel who lost their lives while fulfilling their sworn duty to protect the Filipino people in separate operations in Sultan Kudarat and Cavite.

In Lambayong, Sultan Kudarat, Pat Apollo Pagurayan and Pat Juril Bullos, PNP members of the Regional Mobile Force Battalion 12 were fatally attacked on July 7, 2026, while performing their duties. Initial reports showed that the two police officers were travelling along Barangay Tinumiguis when they were fired upon by unidentified individuals. Responding units immediately coordinated with other law enforcement partners and launched efforts to pursue leads and bring those responsible to justice.

In a separate incident in Dasmariñas, Cavite, Police Corporal Anthony John Martineza, a member of the Calabarzon police drug enforcement unit also made the ultimate sacrifice during an anti-drug operation. The operation led to the arrest of alias “Jeffrey,” 42, identified as the subject of the operation, while follow-up efforts continue to locate other individuals who may have escaped during the encounter.

Chief PNP Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. paid tribute to the fallen personnel, recognizing their dedication and unwavering commitment to public service.

“Ang kanilang sakripisyo ay mananatiling bahagi ng kasaysayan ng ating organisasyon. They stood firm in the face of danger because they believed in their duty to protect our communities. Sa mga naiwang pamilya ng ating mga bayani, nakikiisa kami sa inyong pagluluksa at patuloy naming ipapakita ang suporta na nararapat para sa inyo,” Chief PNP Nartatez said.

The Chief PNP emphasized that the PNP will continue to strengthen its operational capabilities and ensure that every police action is carried out with discipline, preparedness, and respect for the rule of law, consistent with the PNP Focused Agenda, particularly the Enhanced Managing Police Operations (EMPO).

The PNP also remains committed to supporting the families of its fallen personnel while pursuing justice and accountability for those responsible. This commitment reflects the directive of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. to uphold peace and security across the country through responsive and dedicated public service.

The sacrifices of these police heroes serve as a reminder of the commitment carried by every PNP personnel to serve the nation with courage and honor. Guided by the call of the “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman,” the PNP remains steadfast in fulfilling its duty to protect the Filipino people.

PNP CAPTURES NORTHERN SAMAR’S NO. 1 MOST WANTED FOR STATUTORY R**E CASE

The Philippine National Police (PNP), under the leadership of PNP Chief, Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., scored another significant accomplishment in its intensified campaign against wanted persons with the arrest of Northern Samar’s No. 1 Most Wanted Person for Statutory R**e during an operation conducted on June 12, 2026, in Barangay Washington, Catarman, Northern Samar.

The accused, an 18-year-old Filipino male and resident of Lapinig, Northern Samar, was apprehended by virtue of a Warrant of Arrest for Statutory R**e under Republic Act No. 8353 (Anti-R**e Law of 1997), as amended by Republic Act No. 11648. The warrant was issued by the Regional Trial Court, Branch 38, 8th Judicial Region, Gamay, Northern Samar, with no bail recommended.

The successful operation was carried out by personnel of the 2nd Northern Samar Provincial Mobile Force Company, in partnership with the Catarman Municipal Police Station and the 803rd Maneuver Company, Philippine Army. Following his arrest, the accused was placed under the custody of the Catarman Municipal Police Station for documentation and proper disposition before his turnover to the issuing court.

“This arrest demonstrates the unwavering commitment of the Philippine National Police to locate and bring to justice individuals facing serious criminal charges. No matter how long it takes, we will continue to pursue offenders and uphold the rule of law to protect every Filipino community,” PNP Chief PGEN Nartatez said.

“Hindi titigil ang PNP hangga’t naihaharap sa hukuman ang mga taong may pananagutan at naibibigay sa mga biktima ang katarungan. Patuloy naming gagampanan ang aming tungkulin para sa kapakanan ng bawat mamamayan,” he added.

This accomplishment reflects the PNP’s commitment to its PNP Focused Agenda, a strategic framework for transformation designed to make police service more responsive, professional, and accountable. Anchored on its key priorities, particularly Enhanced Managing Police Operations, the PNP continues to strengthen law enforcement efforts by intensifying operations against wanted persons and ensuring that offenders are brought before the courts.

As the PNP strengthens its campaign against wanted persons and reinforces public 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, DEPED AT CAMP CRAME ELEMENTARY SCHOOL NAGKAISA PARA SA MAS LIGTAS NA MGA MAG-AARAL

Ang kaligtasan sa lansangan ay hindi lamang natututunan sa kalsada—ito ay hinuhubog sa loob ng silid-aralan at isinasabuhay araw-araw. Sa layuning maitanim ang disiplina at tamang kaalaman sa murang edad, nagsanib-puwersa ang Philippine National Police (PNP), Department of Education (DepEd), at Camp Crame Elementary School sa isang makabuluhang programa para sa mga mag-aaral.

Sa ilalim ng pamumuno ni PNP Chief, PGEN Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., matagumpay na isinagawa noong Hunyo 11, 2026 ng Highway Patrol Group (HPG) – Police Community Relations Section, sa pakikipagtulungan sa Camp Crame Elementary School sa pangunguna ni Dr. Winston J. Luna, Principal, ang Road Safety Awareness and Information Lecture na dinaluhan ng humigit-kumulang 1,000 mag-aaral sa elementarya at kanilang mga g**o.

Sa isinagawang programa, tinalakay sa mga kalahok ang mahahalagang tuntunin sa trapiko, tamang pagtawid sa kalsada, at kahalagahan ng pagiging maingat at disiplinado sa paggamit ng mga pampublikong daanan. Sa pamamagitan ng mga interaktibong talakayan at mga gawaing pang-edukasyon, mas napalalim ang kanilang kaalaman sa kaligtasan sa kalsada at ang kanilang pananagutan bilang kabataang mamamayan.

Bilang bahagi rin ng paghahanda para sa tag-ulan, namahagi ang HPG ng mga kapote at payong sa mga mag-aaral upang makatulong sa kanilang kaligtasan at proteksyon habang pumapasok at umuuwi sa paaralan.

Ang inisyatibong ito ay sumasalamin sa patuloy na pagtutulungan ng PNP at DepEd sa pagtataguyod ng kultura ng disiplina, kaligtasan, at pananagutang sibiko sa hanay ng kabataan. Layunin nitong mahubog ang mga mag-aaral bilang responsable, mapanuri, at ligtas na gumagamit ng mga lansangan at pampublikong lugar.

Ang PNP ay patuloy na isinusulong ang PNP Focused Agenda—isang gabay sa patuloy na pagbabago at pagpapaunlad ng serbisyo upang higit itong maging makabuluhan at mas malapit sa mamamayan. Kabilang sa mga pangunahing prayoridad nito ang Enhanced Managing Police Operations at Active Community Support, na nagbibigay-diin sa pagpapalakas ng pakikipag-ugnayan sa mga paaralan, komunidad, at iba pang katuwang upang maisulong ang kaligtasan at responsableng pagkamamamayan.

“Road safety education is one of the best investments we can make for our children. By teaching them the right habits today, we help build safer communities for tomorrow. Ang bawat batang natututong sumunod sa batas-trapiko ay hakbang tungo sa mas ligtas na kinabukasan para sa ating lahat,” ani PNP Chief, PGEN Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr.

Sa hiwalay na pahayag, sinabi rin ni PGEN Nartatez:

“The PNP will continue working hand in hand with schools and communities to protect and guide our youth beyond law enforcement. Patuloy nating palalakasin ang mga programang nagbibigay-kaalaman at humuhubog sa kabataan upang maging responsable at mapagmalasakit na mamamayan.”

Sa pamamagitan ng mga programang nagtuturo ng tamang asal, disiplina, at pag-iingat sa lansangan, patuloy na pinagtitibay ng PNP ang ugnayan nito sa sektor ng edukasyon upang makalikha ng mas ligtas na kapaligiran para sa bawat batang Pilipino.

Habang patuloy na pinalalakas ng PNP ang mga programang nagtataguyod ng kaligtasan at kamalayan ng mamamayan, patuloy nitong pinatitibay ang adhikain ng “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong mabilis, tapat, at nararamdaman.”
