PNP chief 'happy' over Quiboloy complaint dismissal
Philippine National Police (PNP) chief General Rommel Marbil thanked the Department of Justice (DOJ) for dismissing malicious mischief and violation of domicile charges filed against him and other law enforcement officials.
These charges stemmed from the police raid conducted in June 2024 at the compound of the religious sect Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC) in Davao City, which aimed to arrest preacher Apollo Quiboloy.
Marbil expressed his happiness over this development as his term as PNP chief concludes on June 7.
He specifically thanked DOJ Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla for 'looking at what's right'.
The complaints, filed by KOJC Pastor Apollo Quiboloy, were dismissed by the DOJ on Thursday, affirming that the actions taken during the operation were in accordance with the law.
Former Interior and Local Government Secretary Benhur Abalos stated that the DOJ decision confirmed their actions were lawful.
