CHECKPOINT OPERATION YIELDS ₱1.7-MILLION SMUGGLED CI******ES IN COTABATO

A checkpoint operation in Cotabato led to the arrest of a 45-year-old businessman and the seizure of some 2,000 reams of suspected smuggled ci******es worth approximately ₱1.71 million on August 29, 2026.

Police personnel from the Aleosan Municipal Police Station, together with the Police Intelligence Unit of Cotabato Police Provincial Office, Regional Intelligence Division 12, and STT Echo, intercepted an Isuzu Elf Re**er Van Truck in Barangay San Mateo, Aleosan, Cotabato.

The driver, identified only as alias “Mando,” reportedly failed to stop when flagged down and instead continued driving, prompting the responding personnel to pursue and intercept the vehicle. The driver was subsequently taken into police custody, while the vehicle and its cargo were secured for proper disposition.

Authorities are preparing charges for alleged violations of Republic Act No. 10863, or the Customs Modernization and Tariff Act, and Article 151 of the Revised Penal Code for filing before the Office of the Provincial Prosecutor in Midsayap.

Chief PNP Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. said the operation demonstrates the importance of sustained police presence and coordination in preventing the movement of illicit goods.

“We will continue to strengthen our presence where it matters most—on the roads, in communities, and at points where illegal goods may pass. Simple lang ang objective: kung may kahina-hinalang galaw, our personnel must be ready to respond properly, lawfully, and professionally.”

The operation forms part of the PNP’s continuing efforts to enhance field operations and inter-unit coordination under its Focused Agenda, particularly Enhanced Managing Police Operations (EMPO). These efforts support the administration of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. in strengthening law enforcement and protecting legitimate businesses and communities from activities that undermine public safety and lawful commerce.

The PNP will continue to pursue enforcement measures while observing due process and the rights of all persons involved, consistent with its commitment to “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.”

“This arrest demonstrates that the PNP will act decisively to protect children and hold those who prey on them accountable. Our police officers must remain vigilant, responsive, and committed to safeguarding the most vulnerable members of our communities,” PGEN Nartatez said.

“Kapag may batang nangangailangan ng proteksiyon, hindi tayo dapat mag-atubili. Ang kaligtasan ng mga bata ay pananagutan nating lahat,” he added.

The prompt response underscores the PNP’s commitment to protecting vulnerable victims. This supports the PNP Focused Agenda, particularly Enhanced Managing Police Operations, which strengthens police response and action against crimes.

ALLEGED BOMB JOKE PROMPTS SECURITY RESPONSE AT TACLOBAN AIRPORT

The Philippine National Police (PNP) promptly responded to a security concern at the Daniel Z. Romualdez Airport in Tacloban City after a female passenger allegedly made a remark suggesting that her laptop contained a bomb while aboard a flight bound for Manila on August 31, 2026.

The passenger was reportedly at the aircraft’s galley when she sought assistance in locating a laptop she had left at the departure area. After the device was found and returned, she was asked to open it for verification and allegedly made the remark that prompted the security response.

PNP Aviation Security Group personnel immediately carried out the appropriate security procedures and arrested the passenger. She was informed of her constitutional rights, while authorities continued to verify the circumstances surrounding the incident.

The PNP is preparing the appropriate complaint for possible violation of Presidential Decree No. 1727, or the Anti-Bomb Joke Law, as the investigation proceeds.

Chief PNP Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. emphasized that airport security requires both vigilance and responsibility from authorities and passengers.

“Sa airport, bawat salita at kilos may epekto sa seguridad. We ask everyone to be mindful because even a remark meant as a joke can trigger a security response and affect other passengers. Ang mahalaga, we respond properly, protect everyone, and let the investigation establish the facts,” PGen Nartatez said.

The PNP also reminds the public that bomb jokes or similar threats should not be made in any setting—not only in airports, but also in public places, schools, establishments, workplaces, and even through social media or other online platforms. What may be intended as humor can cause unnecessary alarm, disrupt operations, and prompt appropriate security measures.

The PNP continues to strengthen security and response measures in support of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.’s commitment to safe and orderly communities. The effort forms part of the PNP Focused Agenda, particularly Enhanced Managing Police Operations, ensuring that police responses remain timely, proportionate, and guided by established procedures.

The PNP remains committed to protecting the public while upholding due process and the rights of every person, consistent with the Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.

The NCRPO, through the Manila Police District Drug Enforcement Unit (MPD-DEU), arrested the 33-year-old male suspect along Maria Orosa Street, Barangay 666, Zone 72, recovering 2,100 grams of suspected shabu with an estimated Standard Drug Price of ₱14,280,000.00.

PGEN Nartatez underscored the importance of the operation in disrupting the movement of illegal drugs in the capital. “This operation demonstrates how intelligence-driven police work can intercept significant drug transactions before they reach their intended destination. We will use every available lead to pursue the wider network behind these activities.”

He also emphasized the value of building on the evidence gathered during the operation. “Ang bawat operasyon ay may mahalagang impormasyong maaaring magturo sa iba pang sangkot. Susuriin natin nang mabuti ang mga ebidensya upang mapalalim ang imbestigasyon at matukoy ang iba pang personalidad na konektado sa kalakalan.”

The operation supports the PNP Focused Agenda, a framework for transformation that strengthens police operations. It reflects the key priority of Enhanced Managing Police Operations in the fight against illegal narcotics.

FIREARM REPORT LEADS PNP TO 5 SUSPECTED ACETYLENE GANG MEMBERS

Five men allegedly linked to the so-called “Acetylene Gang” were arrested after police responding to information about a man reportedly carrying a firearm in General Trias City, Cavite, discovered a cache of weapons, suspected ma*****na, a hand gr***de, and equipment believed to be used in forcibly opening secured containers.

The suspects, aged 33 to 57, were intercepted late evening of August 29 along CM Delos Reyes Avenue, Barangay Biclatan. What initially began as a police response to a report involving a person allegedly armed in the area led to the discovery of other items inside the vehicle where the suspects were found.

Police recovered a 9mm pistol with ammunition from one of the suspects, as well as a .38 revolver, a 12-gauge shotgun, additional ammunition, a hand gr***de, and around 9.77 grams of suspected ma*****na. Acetylene equipment and other paraphernalia allegedly used to forcibly open vaults and other secured containers were also recovered.

Initial investigation indicated that the five men may be connected to the so-called “Acetylene Gang,” which is being linked to robbery incidents in different parts of Luzon and the Visayas. Their identities, backgrounds, and possible involvement in specific incidents remain subject to verification and further investigation.

Chief PNP Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. said the development highlights how alert police response to seemingly isolated reports can uncover wider security concerns.

“Sometimes, what looks like an ordinary report is actually a piece of a bigger picture. Kaya mahalaga ang mabilis na response, tamang validation, at maayos na coordination. We cannot afford to ignore details that may help us prevent a bigger problem,” PGen Nartatez said.

The recovered fi****ms and ammunition will undergo ballistic examination, while the suspected ma*****na will be subjected to chemical analysis. The recovered hand gr***de will likewise be handled by the appropriate explosives unit for proper disposition.

The operation is part of the PNP’s continuing efforts under its Focus Agenda, particularly Enhanced Managing Police Operations, which emphasizes timely response, information-driven policing, and coordinated action against threats to public safety. It also supports President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.’s broader call for safer communities through effective and accountable law enforcement.

Through these efforts, the PNP continues to advance “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman,” ensuring that police action remains responsive to public concerns while respecting due process and the rights of all persons involved.
