PNP vows zero tolerance for police misconduct

Philippine National Police (PNP) Chief Gen. Rommel Francisco Marbil has declared a "zero-tolerance" policy against misconduct and abuse among police officers.

He stated that the PNP is dedicated to upholding the law and ensuring all officers adhere to the strictest code of conduct.

Marbil vowed "swift and stringent" punishments on police officers involved in misconduct.

This comes after recent incidents involving police officers, including two Manila Police District members who allegedly punched and threatened a Valenzuela traffic enforcer, and a police officer arrested for allegedly firing a gun while drinking.

The Internal Affairs Service (IAS) reported that over 6,200 police officers have been punished for various offenses under the Marcos administration.
