72,500 POLICE MOBILIZED NATIONWIDE TO KEEP UNDAS SAFE, ORDERLY

Under the leadership of PGen Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., Chief, Philippine National Police (PNP), police presence is being strengthened nationwide as millions of Filipinos prepare to travel, visit cemeteries, and gather with their families for Undas 2026.

Around 72,500 PNP personnel are being deployed across the country to help keep major public areas safe and orderly, assist travelers and visitors, manage traffic, and provide immediate assistance during the period when movement and public activity are expected to significantly increase.

The deployment places police officers where people are most likely to need them—from cemeteries and columbaria to transportation hubs, major roads, places of worship, tourist destinations, checkpoints, and mobile patrol areas. The PNP has also established 4,980 police assistance desks in cemeteries and columbaria to give the public an accessible point for assistance and reporting concerns.

The nationwide effort is supported by 16,892 personnel from other government units, including the Armed Forces of the Philippines, Bureau of Fire Protection, Philippine Coast Guard, and other concerned agencies. Another 51,467 community force multipliers, including barangay tanods, radio groups, and other organizations, are also helping strengthen public safety.

This brings the combined deployment of police, partner government personnel, and community force multipliers to about 141,000 nationwide.

PGen Nartatez said the presence of police during Undas should be felt not only through visibility but through their readiness to assist people.

"Ngayong Undas, ang importante ay alam ng bawat isa na may pulis na malalapitan kung kailangan nila ng tulong. We are not just putting personnel on the ground; we are making sure they are where they are needed most—ready to assist, respond, and keep things orderly. Gusto natin maramdaman ng publiko na nandiyan ang PNP para tumulong,” PGen Nartatez said.

The nationwide deployment covers 5,311 cemeteries, memorial parks, and columbaria, along with other high-traffic locations nationwide. Police personnel are tasked to assist with crowd movement, traffic concerns, lost persons, emergencies, and other situations that may arise during the observance.

The operation reflects the PNP’s Focused Agenda, particularly Enhanced Managing Police Operations (EMPO), through deliberate deployment of personnel, closer coordination with partner agencies, and police visibility in areas where public safety needs are expected to be greater.

The PNP reminds the public to follow cemetery rules, avoid bringing fi****ms, weapons, illegal drugs, prohibited alcohol, flammable materials, and other restricted items, and remain respectful of fellow visitors.

Those traveling are advised to secure their homes, check their vehicles before long trips, avoid driving under the influence or while fatigued, use legitimate transport services, and keep personal belongings secure. Any emergency or suspicious activity should be promptly reported to the nearest police personnel or assistance desk.

PGen Nartatez called on the public to work with police and other responders in keeping the observance safe and peaceful.

“We have put the personnel and resources in place, but we also need the public to do their part. A safe Undas is a shared responsibility. If we stay alert, follow the rules, and speak up when something needs attention, mas mabilis tayong makakakilos and we can help ensure that families can remember their loved ones with peace of mind,” he said.

As the country observes Undas, the PNP remains committed to bringing responsive police service closer to communities and ensuring that public safety remains at the center of the nationwide observance—consistent with the vision of a Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.

The Philippine National Police (PNP), under the leadership of PNP Chief PGEN Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., arrested a wanted suspect linked to kidnapping for ransom and serious illegal detention cases in an operation in Santa Maria, Isabela, on October 20, 2026.

The 26-year-old male suspect, known by the alias Jonie, was listed as the Anti-Kidnapping Group’s No. 6 Most Wanted Person. He was apprehended by the Anti-Kidnapping Group–Luzon Field Unit in coordination with Santa Maria Municipal Police Station, pursuant to an arrest warrant issued by the Regional Trial Court, Branch 266, Taguig City. The warrant indicated that no bail was recommended for the accused.

The suspect was linked to the alleged abduction of two Chinese nationals. His arrest marks a significant step in efforts to bring individuals facing serious criminal charges before the courts and ensure that they answer for their alleged offenses.

PGEN Nartatez reaffirmed the PNP’s determination to pursue wanted persons and strengthen accountability. “We will pursue every available lead to locate fugitives facing serious criminal charges and ensure that they are brought before the proper courts to face the law,” he said.

He also emphasized the importance of protecting victims and preventing further harm. “Hindi dapat balewalain ang mga kasong may kinalaman sa kidnapping. Patuloy nating paiigtingin ang paghahanap sa mga pugante upang mapanagot sila sa tamang proseso ng batas,” PGEN Nartatez added.

The arrest underscores the PNP’s commitment to Enhanced Managing Police Operations under its PNP Focused Agenda, which guides efforts to strengthen law enforcement against serious criminality. Through sustained operations against wanted persons, the PNP seeks to uphold the rule of law and protect communities from criminal threats.

Nartatez Jr., facilitated another step toward peaceful reintegration with the voluntary surrender of a National Police Surrenderers Registry-listed Communist Terrorist Group (CTG) member in Northern Samar on October 21, 2026.

The 43-year-old male, identified by the alias “Utot,” a farmer from Silvino Lubos, Northern Samar, surrendered one caliber .38 revolver and two live rounds of am******on in Las Navas, Northern Samar.

The surrenderee was identified as a CTG member under the command of alias “Basoy” of the SRC Emporium, Eastern Visayas Regional Party Committee (EVRPC). He remains under the custody of the 2nd NSPMFC for documentation and tactical interviews to assess his identity, credibility, and sincerity in cooperating with the government. His possible enrollment in the Enhanced Comprehensive Local Integration Program (E-CLIP) or Local Social Integration Program (LSIP) will depend on applicable government procedures and eligibility requirements.

“This surrender reinforces our commitment to providing opportunities for those who choose to leave armed struggle and return to peaceful civilian life. We will uphold the law while supporting qualified individuals who are willing to rebuild their lives and contribute to their communities,” PGEN Nartatez said.

“Ang bawat nagbabalik-loob ay may pagkakataong magsimula muli at mamuhay nang mapayapa. Hinihikayat natin ang mga nais talikuran ang armadong pakikibaka na makipag-ugnayan sa mga awtoridad at samantalahin ang mga programang makatutulong sa kanilang pagbabalik sa komunidad,” he added.

The PNP Focused Agenda advances community peace and security through its key priority of Enhanced Managing Police Operations, supporting efforts to encourage CTG members to abandon armed struggle and return to peaceful civilian life.

As the PNP strengthens efforts to encourage CTG members to abandon armed struggle and embrace peaceful reintegration under the directive of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., it assures the public of its commitment to “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat, at Nararamdaman.”

PNP ARRESTS WOMAN IN AURORA; SEARCH FOR MISSING TWINS CONTINUES

Under the leadership of Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., Chief, Philippine National Police (PNP), police authorities have arrested a woman in Aurora in connection with a suspected child trafficking case involving eight-month-old twin boys who remain missing, as investigators pursue leads that could help bring the infants back to their family.

The 32-year-old suspect was arrested on October 19 in Barangay 2, San Luis, Aurora, following an investigation initiated after the twins’ maternal grandmother sought police assistance over the transfer of the children’s custody.

The case was investigated by personnel of the National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO), particularly the Women and Children Protection Desk of the Taguig City Police Station, with assistance from social welfare authorities.

Initial investigation showed that the children’s mother had reportedly met the suspect through social media. Investigators also uncovered financial transactions allegedly made by the suspect to the mother before the twins were transferred into the suspect’s custody.

Police later secured information that helped identify and locate the suspect in Aurora.

However, the twins were not found during the operation. The suspect allegedly told investigators that the infants had already been turned over to a couple in Bulacan. Police are now validating this information and working to determine the twins’ exact whereabouts.

Two other children, including a six-month-old infant, were also found at the residence. They were immediately placed under the protective custody of the San Luis Municipal Social Welfare and Development Office while authorities verify their identities and circumstances.

The suspect is being investigated for possible violations of Republic Act No. 9208, as amended by Republic Acts Nos. 10364 and 11862, or the Anti-Trafficking in Persons Act, and Republic Act No. 7610, or the Special Protection of Children Against Abuse, Exploitation and Discrimination Act. She was informed of her constitutional rights.

Chief PNP PGen Nartatez stressed that the arrest is only one part of the police response, with the immediate priority being the safe recovery of the missing children.

“Ang pinakamahalaga ngayon ay mahanap natin ang dalawang bata. We have a person in custody, but our work does not end there. Every lead has to be checked, every information has to be verified, and we will coordinate with the right agencies until we know where these children are,” PGen Nartatez said.

He also emphasized that the investigation must establish the circumstances surrounding the transfer of the children and identify those who may have played a role.

The PNP is coordinating with concerned law enforcement and social welfare agencies to locate the twins, verify the information regarding their alleged transfer to Bulacan, examine relevant financial and digital records, and determine the possible participation of other individuals.

The operation demonstrates the PNP’s continuing commitment to protect children and other vulnerable sectors, consistent with the priorities of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. and aligned with the PNP Focused Agenda under Enhanced Managing Police Operations (EMPO), particularly through coordinated and responsive police action based on verified information.

As the search continues, the PNP calls on anyone with credible information on the whereabouts of the missing twins to immediately coordinate with authorities and avoid spreading unverified information that could compromise the children’s safety or the ongoing investigation.

The PNP remains committed to pursuing every lawful lead until the children are safely recovered, in keeping with its continuing mission of delivering a Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.
