Senator Nancy Binay called out the Philippine National Police for top to bottom values reorientation, stressing that the force doesn’t seem to face punishment despite issues that surround the force – the latest of which was the killing of two unarmed citizens, Sonya Gregorio (52) and Frank Anthony Gregorio (25).

“Something is deeply wrong when you have both top cops and rank-and-file who flout the law. Wala nang takot, dahil tila hindi naman na yata sila napaparusahan. Kadalasan napo-promote pa nga,” said Senator Binay.

She added: “Rather than being the people’s assurance of law and order, lately many of our cops are becoming the face of terror and impunity, blatantly disregarding the rule of law and spitting on our values. Tama na, sobra na, kailangang itigil na ang pang-aabuso.”

The senator’s comments come after Police Senior Master Sergeant Jonel Nuezca shot down the mother and son as seen in a viral video that has made its rounds on social media. She also furthered that the public expects the police to defend them, instead of harming them.

“May ninja cops, mañanita cops, ex-cop na land grabber at illegal logger, berdugong pulis—buong taon may nakakahiyang headline tungkol sa pulis. Ano na ba ang ginagawa ng liderato tungkol dito? The people expect the police to be their defenders, not their offenders,” said the senator.
