PNP RESCUES MINOR VICTIMS, FOILS ONLINE EXPLOITATION IN CAVITE

The Philippine National Police Women and Children Protection Center – Anti-Trafficking in Persons Division (WCPC–ATIPD), together with the Anti-Cybercrime Group, Mendez Municipal Police Station, Cavite Police Provincial Office, and local government social welfare personnel, successfully conducted an operation on April 29, 2026, resulting in the rescue of three minor victims and the arrest of two suspects identified as their parents in Cavite.

The operation was carried out through a Warrant to Search, Seize, and Examine Computer Data in relation to Online Sexual Abuse and Exploitation of Children (OSAEC). Authorities acted on validated cyber tip information from international and national partner agencies, which triggered a focused investigation leading to the location of the victims and suspects.

Initial findings showed that online exploitation activities involving minors were allegedly facilitated through digital platforms in exchange for monetary gain. Several electronic devices were recovered during the operation and were subjected to on-site forensic examination, which yielded digital evidence relevant to the ongoing investigation.

Criminal complaints have been filed for violations of Republic Act No. 11930 or the Anti-OSAEC and Anti-CSAEM Act of 2022, in relation to Republic Act No. 10175 or the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012. The suspects are now under the custody of the WCPC Field Unit in Luzon, while the rescued children are currently receiving proper care, counseling, and psychosocial support under the Municipal Social Welfare and Development Office.

PNP Chief, Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., emphasized the organization’s firm stance against all forms of abuse involving children, saying, “Ang bawat bata ay dapat protektado. The PNP will continue to act swiftly and decisively against those who exploit the vulnerable. Walang puwang ang ganitong klase ng krimen sa ating komunidad, and we remain committed to bringing offenders to justice while ensuring the safety and recovery of the victims.”

The operation aligns with the PNP Focused Agenda under Enhanced Managing Police Operations, in support of the administration of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., reinforcing strengthened coordination among law enforcement and partner agencies in addressing cyber-enabled crimes.

The PNP also reminds the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious online activities involving minors to authorities. Community vigilance and timely reporting remain vital in preventing similar incidents and protecting children from harm.

This successful operation reflects the continuing commitment of the organization under the principle of “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.”

PNP, DMW NABS KOREAN IN ILLEGAL JOB SCAM CRACKDOWN

The Philippine National Police, under the leadership of PNP Chief PGEN Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., intensified its nationwide campaign against illegal recruitment and fraudulent overseas employment schemes following the arrest of a Korean national involved in an alleged illegal recruitment operation in Davao City.

On May 4, 2026, operatives of the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) Davao City Field Unit, in coordination with representatives from the Department of Migrant Workers (DMW), conducted an entrapment operation along McArthur Highway, Davao City, which led to the arrest of alias “Hyun,” a 54-year-old Korean national, for alleged illegal recruitment activities targeting aspiring overseas workers.

Investigation disclosed that the suspect was engaged in recruiting Filipinos as factory workers in South Korea and was caught accepting a placement fee from a victim despite having no authority or license from the Department of Migrant Workers to recruit individuals for overseas employment. The suspect allegedly promised employment in Seoul, South Korea, with a monthly salary of KRW 2,200,000.00 or approximately PhP92,000.00, including free accommodation and meals, in exchange for a processing fee of PhP28,000.00.

Authorities further disclosed that at least 40 individuals were allegedly victimized by the scheme, including 19 residents from Davao City. The operation forms part of the government’s strengthened enforcement of Republic Act No. 8042, as amended by Republic Act No. 10022, which seeks to uphold the dignity and welfare of Filipino migrant workers and protect them from exploitation and illegal recruitment activities.

“This operation reflects our determination to protect Filipinos from individuals who take advantage of their desire to work abroad. Illegal recruitment destroys opportunities and places the safety and future of our people at risk,” said PGEN Nartatez.

“Hindi natin hahayaang malinlang at mapagsamantalahan ang ating mga kababayan na naghahanap lamang ng maayos na trabaho para sa kanilang pamilya. Patuloy nating hahabulin ang mga sangkot sa ganitong uri ng panlilinlang,” he added.

The successful joint operation highlights the continuing collaboration between the CIDG and the Department of Migrant Workers in dismantling illegal recruitment networks and preventing fraudulent overseas job schemes. It also reinforces the PNP Focused Agenda—an operational framework of transformation designed to make police service more responsive and dependable. Among its key priorities, Enhanced Managing Police Operations remains vital in strengthening law enforcement actions against illegal recruitment, human trafficking, and other forms of organized exploitation targeting Filipino workers.

PGEN Nartatez likewise emphasized that the arrest serves as a stern warning against individuals exploiting Filipino workers through deceptive recruitment activities.

“We will continue strengthening our enforcement efforts with partner agencies to ensure that those behind illegal recruitment schemes are held accountable under the law and that aspiring overseas workers are protected from abuse and deception,” said PGEN Nartatez.

“Mas paiigtingin pa natin ang pagbabantay laban sa mga illegal recruiter upang maprotektahan ang kinabukasan ng bawat Pilipinong manggagawa,” he stressed.

As the PNP sustains its intensified campaign against illegal recruitment and human trafficking under the directive of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., it continues to assure the public of “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong mabilis, tapat, at nararamdaman.”

DALAWANG PANGANGANAK, AGARANG RINESPUNDIHAN NG PULIS; INA AT SANGGOL LIGTAS

Dalawang magkahiwalay na insidente ng panganganak ang agad na naagapan ng kapulisan sa Albay at Pangasinan, na muling nagpakita ng malasakit at kahandaan ng Philippine National Police sa oras ng emergency.

Sa Rapu-Rapu, Albay, bandang alas-2:30 ng hapon noong Mayo 2, 2026, rumesponde ang mga tauhan ng Rapu-Rapu Municipal Police Station matapos makatanggap ng tawag na may buntis na nanganganak habang sakay ng motorbanca sa gitna ng dagat.

Sa aktuwal na sitwasyon, inabutan na ng panganganak ang ginang, at dito naipakita ang kahandaan ni PCpl Rachelle Dondonilla, isang pulis at lisensyadong nurse, na maingat na tumulong upang masigurong ligtas ang ina at sanggol bago sila isinugod sa ospital. Ligtas ang mag-ina sa kasalukuyan.

Samantala, sa San Jacinto, Pangasinan noong Mayo 3, 2026, isang babaeng nasa aktibong naglalabor ang humingi ng tulong sa himpilan ng pulisya. Dahil sa mabilis na aksyon ng mga tauhan ng San Jacinto MPS, naipanganak ang sanggol sa isang tricycle sa harap mismo ng istasyon. Agad ding isinunod sa pangangalaga ng rural health unit ang mag-ina para sa karagdagang gamutan. Ligtas ang mag-ina.

Pinuri ni Police General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. ang mga tauhan sa kanilang mabilis at makataong aksyon.

“Ito ang uri ng serbisyo na inaasahan ng ating mga kababayan—handa, maaasahan, at may malasakit. Hindi lang ito tungkol sa tungkulin, kundi sa tunay na paglingap sa kapwa,” ani PGen Nartatez.

Dagdag pa niya, “Sa ganitong mga pagkakataon, naipapakita natin na ang pulis ay hindi lamang tagapagpatupad ng batas, kundi katuwang sa pagligtas ng buhay.”

Ang insidenteng ito ay patunay na sa oras ng pangangailangan, maaasahan ang kapulisan—kahit sa gitna ng dagat, walang inuurungan pagdating sa serbisyo.

Patuloy na isinusulong ng PNP ang adhikaing Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman, sa pamamagitan ng mga gawaing tunay na sumasalamin sa malasakit at dedikasyon sa sambayanan.
