00:00 The 10 police of the Southern Police District were dismissed from their service
00:04 for filing administrative charges
00:07 for the involvement in the illegal arrest of 4 Chinese women last September.
00:14 Patrick De Souza has the details.
00:16 NCRPO Chief Police Major General Jose Melencio Nartates Jr. has approved
00:25 the dismissal order of the 10 police of the Southern Police District
00:31 for various administrative cases, including the grave misconduct
00:36 and conduct unbecoming of a police officer.
00:39 This includes a police raid of the SPD Special Operations Unit
00:43 in a condominium in Paranaque City last September
00:47 where 4 Chinese women were illegally arrested.
00:52 Some of the alleged police raids were robberies
00:56 because of the misappropriation of P27 million in money
01:00 and items not included in the search warrant.
01:04 In a video, police officers were seen carrying a large box
01:08 that was filled with money.
01:10 They went straight to the parking basement and took the boxes from a car.
01:16 Here are some of the evidence that NCRPO leaders saw.
01:20 Robbery, because we have CCTVs.
01:23 When you bring pieces of evidence, physical evidence,
01:30 outside the premises that you have raided,
01:36 without the benefit of documenting it, you call it robbery.
01:42 So they didn't put it in the inventory?
01:45 Yes, they did it deliberately.
01:47 Other irregularities in the operation were planting evidence,
01:52 perjury, and obstruction of justice
01:55 because the body-worn camera was intentionally killed.
01:58 Aside from the police who were dismissed,
02:00 7 other officers were called for demotion
02:03 while 17 were arrested.
02:06 It is recorded that a camera was used
02:09 where some PNP officers were sighted and contempted
02:13 including the former SPD Comptroller Head, Colonel Charlie Cabradilla,
02:18 and former SPD Director, Brigadier General Roderick Mariano.
02:22 The Presidential Clearance is just waiting
02:25 for the investigation of Cabradilla and Mariano to help in the case.
02:30 Based on his statement, he doesn't know.
02:34 But based on the testimony and sign by the chief of the DSOU, he knows.
02:45 But this will be ventilated through the conduct of summary hearing
02:49 because we are just waiting for the Presidential Clearance.
02:52 Nartates said that the NCRPO is serious in cleaning their property
02:57 and the police were given a due process.
03:02 It is very saddening for the organization that we have this.
03:08 But we take note that the internal cleansing is one of the priority
03:14 not only here in the Philippine National Police
03:17 but especially given by our chief PNP.
03:21 We ensure and monitor the integrity of our police
03:30 and the entire Philippine National Police
03:33 including the pronouncement of our President BBM
03:37 about zero tolerance on corruption.
03:41 The PNP left the police's restricted custody
03:45 but the criminal case against them and other members of the organization
03:50 is still ongoing.
