QCPD to probe alleged links of cops to robbery cases

Manila Bulletin

March 21, 2026

The Quezon City Police District (QCPD) is ready to conduct an investigation into the viral video of a recently arrested robbery holdup suspect allegedly implicating some of its police officers in his previous crimes.

"The QCPD would like to clarify that the recent viral video of a suspect arrested on March 15, 2026, in Manila, implicating QCPD personnel in connection with his previous cases, is misleading and unfounded," the police force said, noting that it has been consistent in its campaign against criminality, strictly in accordance with Philippine National Police (PNP) operational procedures.
