Hi ED,

THANKS FOR THE E MAIL. I'D LIKE TO TELL YOU MY SON'S EXPERIENCE
WITH THE MANILA POLICE LAST WEDNESDAY EVENING AT ABOUT 10PM.

CHRISTIAN WENT TO THE CONDO AT THE CORNER OF VITO CRUZ AND TAFT
AVE. TO RETURN HIS COUSIN'S LAPTOP. HE HANDED THE LAPTOP TO HIS
COUSIN AND WENT BACK TO THE CAR. WHEN HE GOT TO THE CAR, THERE
WAS A COP WHO ASKED HIM WHAT HE WAS DOING THERE; WHY HE WAS
PARKED ON A NO PARKING AREA. CHRISTIAN SAID, IF IT WERE A NO
PARKING AREA WHY IS IT THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF CARS PARKED.

THE COP TOLD HIM TO OPEN HIS TRUNK AND CHRIS ASKED, WHY? DO YOU
HAVE A WARRANT? ANYWAY, THE CAR DOORS AND WINDOWS WERE OPEN AND
ANOTHER COP SEARCHED THE INTERIOR WHILE ANOTHER OPENED THE
TRUNK.

IN THE TOOLBOX THEY FOUND THE PLASTIC END OF SPARK PLUGS. THE
COP SAID IT WAS A PARAPHARNALIA. THE SAME COP BROUGHT TO THE
TRUNK USED PLASTIC SACHETS OF SHABU AND STARTED TO SHOUT 'DRUGS
'TO!', 'DRUGS!'

SO THEY TOOK CHRISTIAN, TO THE ATM OF BPI. THEY SAW HIS CARD
AND ASKED HIM TO WITHDRAW ALL HIS MONEY. FORTUNATELY HE DOES
NOT KEEP HIS MONEY THERE. ONLY HIS SALARY IS DEPOSITED THERE.
SO THE COPS WE INSISTED THAT HE WAS A DRUG USER. AND MY SON WAS
SAYING DO A TEST NOW SO THEY'LL SEE IF HE'S POSITIVE. HE SAID I
CAN'T WORK IN MANDARIN AS A CHEF IF I'M A DRUG USER. HE SAID HE
HAD TO GET POLICE, NBI, BARANGAY, COURT AND MEDICAL CLEARANCE
BEFORE HE COULD START WORKING.

THEN THE POLICE TOOK HIM TO POLICE HEAD-QUARTERS AT UN AVE. AND
THERE FORCED HIM TO EAT SHABU. IT TOOK A WHILE BEFORE HE ATE
IT. SIX COPS WERE PUNCHING HIM AND SCARING HIM WITH THEIR GUNS
UNTIL THE POOR GUY PEED IN HIS PANTS OUT OF FEAR. HE HAD TO
SWALLOW THE DRUG. THEN THE COPS STARTED TO LAUGH. NOW WE'LL SEE
IF YOU ARE NEGATIVE OF SHABU. '200,000PHP AND WE'LL LET YOU GO
OR THIS WILL BE AT THE FISCALS OFFICE IN THE MORNING. CALL YOUR
FRIENDS AND PARENTS.

THIS ORDEAL STARTED AT 10PM. HE WAS ABLE TO CALL ME AT 5AM THE
FOLLOWING DAY. POOR SON OF MINE WAS REALLY TRAUMATIZED. A
FRIEND OF HIS CAME WITH TWENTY THOUSAND THE COPS GRABBED IT AND
LET HIM GO AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED.

I WAS IN LIPA ALL THE TIME THIS WAS HAPPENING. CHRIS LATER
FOUND OUT FROM HIS COUSIN THAT SEVEN OF HER FRIENDS WERE ALSO
APPREHENDED BY THE SAME GROUP OF COPS AND ALSO TOOK THEM TO
THEIR ATM'S. THEY GOT ALL THEIR MONEY IN THE ACCOUNT. THIS COP
IS CAPT.MENDOZA OF THE MOBIL GROUP AND SARGENT GAVINO. IF YOU
GUYS KNOW INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE IN THE SERVICE, PLEASE LET THEM
KNOW ABOUT THIS. I WOULD ALSO LIKE FOR THEM TO RETURN THE MONEY
THEY TOOK FROM MY SON SO HE COULD GIVE IT BACK TO HIS FRIEND.

THE MORE PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT THIS SO CALLED POLICE OFFICERS THE
BETTER. THIS IS THE TYPE OF GOVERNMENT THAT WE HAVE NOW. DISARM
THE POPULATION AND THIS TYPE OF ABUSE HAPPENS. THANKS AND PASS
IT ON. BOB

Manila's finest..............

Sana naman di totoo ito.

[v6dreamer]

Sa hirap ng buhay ngayon, nothing is imposible either cops or no cops. Keep your eyes open.

[Galactus]

Nope, the incident is true. May na-relieve na na mga pulis Maynila, kasama si Sr. Insp. Rolando Mendoza, reportedly a former recipient of the Ten Outstanding Policemen Awards.

Dapat masibak at makulong agad itong mga mokong na ito.

[j_avonni]

It could be true. Alam nyo naman ang mga pulis maraming drama sa buhay. Rub outs, planting of evidences, fall guys, entrapments, etc.

Ingat na lang.

Iwas iwas na lang sa ilang na lugar, madilim na rin kasi dyan sa area na yan by 10pm.

scary naman...dapat itali sa puno tong mga to chaka papapak sa langgam eh

[Karag2]

I tend to believe that the story is credible... heard it over the radio yesterday that come of the cops, 5 I think, got relieve... just like Galactus said...

kelangan nang gumawa ng batas na magpapataas ng parusa sa mga lokong yan... buwis natin ginamit sa sweldo nila tapos tayo pa takot... kelangan gawing hineous crime kahit yung pangongotong... hindi lang administrative, dapat civil and criminal case ang ipataw sa mga yan...

kung mapatunayan dapat managot...

Walang criminal charges ba?

[GerardTagayty]

i study at CSB and i have been random checked twice. a couple of months back i came from a party and had to drop off a friend at her dorm near csb.. it was around 2 am after dropping her off sa residencia turned left into taft i just saw soemone flagging me with a flashlight.i stopped near starbucks para maliwanag at maraming tao. they asked for my DL and car registration. they asked me what i was doing there at that time so i told em i had to drop off a friend. they asked me where i came from i said makati. they search the car without touching anythin naman. they asked me to open the glove box the center console and checked the door pockets. they saw my bag and they asked me to open it. i obliged and they saw my camera and asked if i was a photographer i just said no im a student taking photography.. i sat in my car for a couple of mins. they never really asked me to step out of the car and even if they did i wouldnt. they returned my dl and registration and they let me go after like 15 mins of looking around.

second one was a couple of weeks back. came back from a police station over at guadalupe (coz i was part of a little fender bender) so was around 11 pm was with 3 friends. drop 2 of them over at their condo at vito cruz. started driving back towards CCP then a car pulled up beside my car with my friend still on the passenger seat. they flashed us with a flash light and asked us to pull over. i stopped under a lamp post where its brighter and theres people walking around. same drill they asked me for my dl and registration. they asked us to open the glove compartment and looked into the pockets. but thing is my friend had long rocker hair lol they asked him if he was carrying marijuana. he said no but they asked to see any identification. so he took out his drivers license. they even checked his box of cigs. what they didnt know he was the son of a police colonel whos posted down in quezon province. so anyhow they jokingly said its coz of his hair thats why they asked if he had marijuana (a very funny stereotype) so they returned my dl and registration and told us to drive safely adn dont do drugs (doh!) on this encounter i think the police had some drinks before they did their random check... oh and i noticed i wasnt the only one they checked.. there are two police cars doing random checks

thank God none of whats in the story happened to us..

[Galactus]

Walang criminal charges ba?

Wala pa yata, kasi hindi naman nagpi-prisinta yung complainant. Criminal charges can only prosper pag may actual complainant.

Pero mukhang strikto naman si C/Supt. Boysie Rosales. Hopefully, matanggalan din ng baril at chapa tong mga gunggong na ito, para patas ang laban.

[Foolishncrazy]

I think this message has been circulating around the net since God knows when.

Anyway, if there are serious complaints like these, you can always hire a lawyer and file a criminal case against the perpetrators since the suspected cops were identified. You can also personally go to Chief Supt. Roberto "Boysie" Rosales' office or contact him thru his office number at 521-02-09 and file a complaint. And there are these accredited human rights groups of people ready to lend a helping hand against authority abuse.

Just a simple piece of advice though every time you leave home (as my Dad always tell me): Always be ASSERTIVE, CAREFUL and ALERT. The streets are dangerous and you'll never know what trouble you'll be in whenever you're out. Always be on the look out, have your cell phone ready to call up and notify anyone immediately whenever you get the chance if something happens like this to you. According to this mail, it happened in a very busy street. Always keep in mind that there will always be witnesses in scenes like these. The corners of Taft and Vito Cruz are well-lit and full of people even in the most unGodly hour. The ATM transaction statement can also be used as evidence. If they take you to the police station, (if I am right) you will first be booked at the front desk and give you your right to have a phone call before you can be interrogated. The case will be booked with the apprehending cops' names noted. If the guy got punched to eat shabu, the
punch marks should show in the medical examination report and you can use it as evidence in court. Even his ****, er..... bowel can be used as evidence for traces of methamphetamine that can easily be examined by an accredited doctor to show that he was forced to eat it. And if you are a shabu user, will you eat your shabu instead of using it the "right" way to get you high? How stupid could these cops be to extort 200 grand only to get identified and use something the "wrong" way? And how can a smart family hand out 20 grand easily if only they know their rights and were assertive enough? They could have marked the 20 grand, handed it out to the bad cops, and went straight to General Rosales' office to apprehend them (if it really happened at MPD HQ). For sure the cash will still be in their pockets if they only have 2 minutes to get rid of it. And believe me, if they threatened you about your case being in the Fiscal's Office the next day? Accept it and grab the opportunity for IT IS the BEST WAY out of this illegal situation.

Most importantly, know your rights. Smarten up on the streets by knowing what to do legally especially when dealing with authorities. They could just be routinely doing their job. But if you happen to encounter the scalawags, it will surely repel them if you seem to be smart and assertive enough. They will probably think, "mukhang di tayo ubra dito, dun na lang tayo tumapat sa tatanga-tanga."

Before we disarm the government with these kind of abuse, let's disarm the people first who create these loopholed stories that use the net to make our people in authorities look bad.

"If you think cops are bad, try living without one."

[mazingerZ]

Instead of being law enforcers, the cops now have become the number 1 violator of the laws that they are supposed to enforce. What irony . . .

[bluemica]

granted, madami naman din tayong mga pulis na matitino. pero hindi talaga natin mapagkakaila na mas madaming pulis diyan na talagang gagawa ng kahit ano para lang kumita ng easy money. sana lang ay maglaho na sila at kunin na sila ni Lord.

[sirmykel]

5 cops in chef’s case to be transferred

MANILA, Philippines – The five Manila policemen who allegedly extorted money from a Makati hotel chef will be transferred to Mindanao.

Supt. Eleazar Matta, chief of the MPD General Assignment Section, said the policemen, who are facing charges of robbery extortion, grave threats and physical injuries, would be assigned to the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) and Provincial Regional Office 9 or Zamboanga City.

The charges stemmed from a complaint of Christian Kalaw who said he was arrested on fake drug charges and fed shabu so he would test positive for drugs.

Senior Insp. Rolando Mendoza, Insp. Nelson Lagasca, SPO1 Nestor David, PO3 Wilson Gavino and PO2 Roderick Lopena, all of the District Mobile Patrol Unit (DMPU), were initially moved to the District Mobile Force.

Kalaw said in his affidavit that he was harassed by the policemen on April 9 in front of a condominium on Taft Avenue corner Vito Cruz Street after they claimed they found shabu paraphernalia in his car.

The victim resisted and was allegedly strangled and forced to eat shabu by the cops, who later demanded P200,000 for his release. Kalaw was set free after reportedly giving P20,000.

The chef’s ordeal came to light through an e-mail titled “Beware of a group of Manila cops.” The e-mail apparently reached the desk of Philippine National Police chief director Gen. Avelino Razon Jr., who immediately ordered an investigation of the incident.
