The gist is that armed men pretending to be policemen blocked a businessman's vios and robbed him (including the car). they were riding in a maroon car with blinkers and sirens.

konting ingat peeps

may thread pa nga lang yesterday about the growing number of checkpoints (w/ body search pa) na questionable ang legality, eto na naman...talagang kawawa tayong mga taxpayers...

From the Inquirer article:

The group, said Quezon City Police District Anti-Carnapping Task Force and Unit chief Supt. Ceasar Tannagan, chose expensive cars and struck between 11 p.m. and 3 a.m.

Kelan pa ba nakasali sa listahan ng "expensive cars" ang Vios? No offense to Vios owners, but I think this police official should be more careful about issuing blanket statements like this that may mislead the public into thinking that only those who have high-end automobiles are in danger.

Anyway, hindi lang sa QC malabo ang pag-implement ng checkpoints. If you pass through McArthur Highway, specifically between Paniqui and Gerona in Tarlac, there is sometimes a 90s vintage Corolla (civilian car ito ha, no law enforcement markings whatsoever) with uniformed and armed persons that presumably serves as a checkpoint. Makuhanan nga ng litrato pag natyempuhan ko.

tama yan, ayon sa Supreme Court, dapat hanggang silip lang sila mula sa labas. ang exception lang dito kung may probable cause sila na may krimen kang ginawa which requires personal knowledge of the crime o kung may taga customs na alam na may dala kang smuggled goods.

keep cool lang sa checkpoint, dahil pag bigla kang tumakbo, sapat na iyon para tumaas ang hinala nila (from a legal point of view). dapat may consent kung ise-search ang kotse at lalo na kung yung tao, pero kung 12MN at puro M-16 ang dala ng kaharap mo, makakatanggi ka ba?
