A rookie cop was nabbed in Taguig City by virtue of a Warrant of Arrest for the crime of Forcible Abduction with R**e.
In a latest operation to a string of internal efforts against alleged rogues in uniform, the Integrity Monitoring and Enfforcement Group (IMEG) successfully served a Warrant of Arrest to Patrolman Jerome Ubaldo Arroyo on August 16, 2022.
Arroyo, who is assigned at the Manila Police District, is the subject of a Warrant of Arrest issued by Judge Anne Beatrice Balmaceda of Branch 27 RTC NCR-JR, Manila.
Earlier, IMEG agents arrested three personnel of the Manila Police District for alleged extortion.
The IMEG has been very active in conducting operations involving PNP personnel. Records show that for the month of July, 92 cases have been filed before the court against cops tagged in Robbery (Extortion) charges.
PNP Chief Gen. Rodolfo Azurin Jr. reminded commanders to exercise disciplinary authority over their personnel or be relieved from post.
“If you are not going to do your job, then the entire station or sub-station will be relieved and they will be replaced with more responsible and accountable PNP personnel,” Azurin warns police officers.
Azurin reiterated the standard procedure wherein immediate supervisor of these arrested personnel should automatically investigate and prompt IAS for possible filing of administrative cases, under the doctrine of command responsibility.
“Instilling discipline is a routinary action that must be taken priority so we can implant integrity in our work,” Azurin said.
