PNP Policemen Engaged in Illegal Activities

Police Chief Superintendent Franklin Jesus B. Bucayu, Region 1 police director, has warned his personnel against engaging in illegal activities after a policeman and two suspected robbers were killed in a shootout with authorities in Pozorrubio, Pangasinan last Tuesday.

Bucayu reiterated he will not tolerate any wrongdoing by any member of the police organization under his command.

"Disciplinary actions will be imposed immediately against erring police personnel in keeping with the 10-Point Action Plan of the PNP chief, particularly on Strengthening the Reward and Disciplinary System," he said.

The three slain suspects were identified as Police Officer 1 Munib K. Dalimbang, a member of Malasiqui Police Station in Pangasinan; Jonald Almirol; and Larry Villamiro.

The police said the suspects were pursued by Pozorrubio policemen after Jeffrey E. Marayag, 28, of Barangay Cablong, Pozorrubio reported that he was held up at gunpoint by the suspects who took his wallet containing P3,020 then fled on board a motorcycle.

A firefight ensued at around 1:45 a.m. along Sitio Limmansangan in Poblacion, Pozorrubio, after one of the suspects jumped off the motorcycle and fired his gun towards the responding policemen.
