EASTERN VISAYAS’ 4TH AND 5TH MOST WANTED PERSONS FOR R**E FALL IN LUZON

The Philippine National Police, under the command of PNP Chief PGEN Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., arrested two Regional Most Wanted Persons of Region 8 for r**e in separate operations conducted in Quezon Province and Caloocan City on September 3, 2026.

First arrested was alias “Gino,” a 21-year-old Filipino male construction worker and No. 5 Regional Most Wanted Person of Region 8. He was apprehended at Buenaventura Alandy National High School in Barangay Ibabang Bukal, Tayabas, Quezon Province, by virtue of a warrant of arrest for R**e under Article 266-A of the Revised Penal Code, with no bail recommended.

Later that day, alias “Ben,” an 18-year-old Filipino male and No. 4 Regional Most Wanted Person of Region 8, was arrested in Barangay 176, Bagong Silang, Caloocan City. He was likewise apprehended by virtue of a warrant of arrest for R**e under Article 266-A of the Revised Penal Code, with no bail recommended.

The arrests were carried out by personnel of the Regional Intelligence Division–Regional Special Operations Unit 8 (RID-RSOU-8), together with the Area Counterintelligence Section of the Regional Intelligence Division, NCRPO (ACS-RID, NCRPO), in coordination with the Biri Municipal Police Station and other concerned police units. Intelligence gathering, verification, surveillance, and sustained information-sharing enabled the police to track and confirm the whereabouts of the two wanted persons despite their presence outside Region 8.

Following their arrest, both individuals were informed of the nature and cause of their arrest and apprised of their constitutional rights in a language known to and understood by them. They were subsequently brought to the ACS-RID, NCRPO custodial facility at Camp Bagong Diwa, Bicutan, Taguig City, for documentation and proper disposition.

The operation supports the PNP Focused Agenda, which strengthens intelligence-led police operations and accountability, particularly under Enhanced Managing Police Operations.

PGEN Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. said the arrests demonstrate the PNP’s firm resolve to pursue wanted persons regardless of where they may hide.

“Distance and jurisdictional boundaries will not deter our law enforcement efforts. We will use every lawful means available to locate wanted persons and bring them before the proper authorities,” PGEN Nartatez said.

He also underscored the importance of securing justice for victims of serious crimes.

“Hindi titigil ang PNP sa pagtugis sa mga wanted person, saan man sila magtago. Patuloy nating paiigtingin ang ating mga operasyon upang maibigay sa mga biktima ang hustisyang nararapat sa kanila,” he added.

The arrests of Region 8’s No. 4 and No. 5 Most Wanted Persons for r**e underscore the PNP’s firm pursuit of individuals wanted for serious offenses, even beyond their home region.

As the PNP strengthens its campaign against wanted persons 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.”

₱147.4-M SUSPECTED MA*****NA KUSH INTERCEPTED IN SUBIC SEAPORT OPERATION

Nearly 100 kilograms of suspected Ma*****na Kush worth an estimated ₱147.48 million were intercepted in a joint seaport interdiction operation in Subic, underscoring the continuing efforts of law enforcement agencies to prevent dangerous drugs from reaching communities.

The operation was conducted at about 6:05 p.m. on September 2, 2026 at the Subic Bay Yacht Club by the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA), Philippine National Police (PNP), Bureau of Customs, and other participating units.

During the inspection of a yacht, a PDEA Narcotic Detection Dog indicated the possible presence of dangerous drugs. This led authorities to an area where 89 plastic bags containing suspected Ma*****na Kush were discovered.

The seized substance had a total weight of approximately 98,322 grams and an estimated standard drug price of ₱147,483,000.00. The items are currently under the custody of the PDEA Regional Office 3 Laboratory Section for documentation, laboratory examination, and proper disposition.

Chief PNP Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. said the seizure highlights the value of coordinated action, particularly at ports and other entry points where illegal drugs may be transported.

“This is about staying alert and working together. Hindi natin kailangang hintayin na makarating sa mga komunidad ang illegal drugs bago kumilos. When agencies coordinate early and act within the law, we have a better chance of stopping the problem at its source,” PGen Nartatez said.

The operation forms part of the PNP’s implementation of its Focus Agenda, particularly under Enhanced Managing Police Operations, which strengthens coordination, timely action, and effective law enforcement in addressing security concerns.

The PNP will continue to work closely with PDEA, the Bureau of Customs, and other government partners in strengthening interdiction measures while upholding due process and the rights of all persons involved. The public is likewise encouraged to remain vigilant and report information on suspected illegal drug activities through proper authorities.

These continuing efforts support the administration of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. in promoting safer communities and reinforce the PNP’s commitment to a “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.”

In the National Capital Region, a No. 10 wanted person was arrested in Mandaluyong City for violation of Section 11, Article II of Republic Act No. 9165, or the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002. In Cavite, police also arrested a regional-level Most Wanted Person for violation of Section 5, Article II of the same law. The latter warrant carried no recommended bail.

The PNP said the operations were carried out through coordinated efforts of police units in the respective areas, with arrested persons placed under the custody of the appropriate police or custodial facilities for documentation and proper disposition. The arrests were undertaken pursuant to warrants issued by the courts, with bail conditions determined by the courts where applicable.

Chief PNP Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. said the continued implementation of court-issued warrants is part of the PNP’s duty to ensure that cases are properly pursued through the justice system.

“May warrant na galing sa korte, so trabaho natin na ipatupad ito nang maayos at ayon sa batas. We are not here to decide the case. Ang atin lang, gawin nang tama ang ating trabaho, respetuhin ang karapatan ng inaresto, at ipaubaya sa korte ang susunod na proseso,” PGen Nartatez said.

The operations support the PNP Focused Agenda, particularly Enhanced Managing Police Operations (EMPO), through coordinated police action against identified priorities while ensuring that operations remain lawful and responsive. These efforts support the peace and security objectives of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. and the administration’s commitment to a safer Philippines.

The PNP reminds the public that persons arrested pursuant to warrants remain entitled to due process and all rights guaranteed by law. The public is encouraged to provide relevant information through proper police channels and cooperate with authorities in maintaining peace and order in their communities.

Through sustained and lawful operations, the PNP continues to uphold the rule of law and strengthen public safety in keeping with its commitment to a Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.
