The arrests demonstrate the PNP’s sustained pursuit of wanted persons through focused warrant operations conducted by police stations, intelligence units, mobile forces, CIDG, PNP SAF, and other operating units across the country.

“We will sustain our focused pursuit of wanted persons and ensure that those with standing warrants are brought before the proper courts. Every lawful arrest strengthens accountability and advances the justice process while respecting due process and the rule of law,” PGEN Nartatez said.

“Hindi titigil ang ating kapulisan sa paghahanap sa mga wanted persons. Patuloy nating ipatutupad ang mga warrant of arrest nang naaayon sa batas at sisiguraduhin nating maihaharap sa tamang proseso ng hustisya ang mga taong hinahanap ng hukuman,” he added.

The arrests reflect Enhanced Managing Police Operations, a key priority under the PNP Focused Agenda that reinforces focused and lawful police action against wanted persons and other threats to public safety.

As the PNP strengthens its law enforcement efforts under the directive of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., it assures the public of “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat, at Nararamdaman.”

130 FOREIGN NATIONALS ACCOUNTED FOR IN ZAMBOANGA SIBUGAY FORCED-LABOR PROBE AMID ARMED CLASH

The Philippine National Police, under the leadership of PNP Chief PGEN Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., backed a government operation in Zamboanga Sibugay that accounted for 130 foreign nationals amid an armed encounter on October 2, 2026.

The operation was conducted in Barangay Tandiong Muslim, Alicia, Zamboanga Sibugay, by personnel of the Bureau of Immigration (BI), National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), and the Police Intelligence Unit and Alicia Municipal Police Station of the Zamboanga Sibugay Police Provincial Office. It stemmed from allegations of forced labor and the employment of foreign nationals without the required visas or immigration documents.

An armed encounter transpired between the operating government personnel and unidentified armed individuals during the operation. Two Chinese nationals were wounded and immediately brought to Alicia District Hospital for medical treatment before being referred to Zamboanga Medical Center for further medical attention.

A total of 130 foreign nationals were accounted for, consisting of 120 Chinese, four Indonesians, three Malaysians, and three Myanmar nationals. They were placed under the custody of the BI and NBI and subsequently brought to Purok 2, Barangay Kimos, Siay, Zamboanga Sibugay, for consolidation and proper disposition.

Their immigration status, individual circumstances, and possible involvement in any unlawful activity remain subject to verification and investigation by the competent authorities. Meanwhile, the identities, whereabouts, and subsequent status of the unidentified armed individuals involved in the encounter remain subject to further investigation.

“This operation highlights the importance of decisive law enforcement action when there are indications of exploitation and immigration violations. Our personnel must remain alert, disciplined, and committed to protecting people while carrying out their lawful duties,” PGEN Nartatez said.

“Hindi tayo magpapabaya sa mga sitwasyong maaaring maglagay sa panganib sa buhay at seguridad ng mga tao. Sisiguraduhin nating naaayon sa batas ang ating mga hakbang at mananagot ang sinumang mapatutunayang lumabag sa batas,” he added.

The PNP Focused Agenda provides a framework for strengthening police service and translating priorities into concrete results, particularly through Enhanced Managing Police Operations, which reinforces lawful and sustained law enforcement efforts.

As the PNP strengthens law enforcement efforts and safeguards communities under the directive of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., it assures the public of “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat, at Nararamdaman.”
