Ang aming paninindigan ay nananatiling malinaw. Hindi kami titigil sa aming pagsisikap hangga’t hindi naipatutupad ang warrant of arrest alinsunod sa batas.

Ang Philippine National Police ay nananatiling isang apolitikal at walang kinikilingang organisasyon. Ang lahat ng aming mga aksyon ay ginagabayan ng batas at ng aming mandato na ipatupad ito nang walang takot o pagtatangi.
