HUSBAND AND WIFE AMONG DAGUPAN’S MOST WANTED ARRESTED IN CHILD ABUSE CASE

Under the leadership of PGen Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., Chief, Philippine National Police (PNP), police authorities in Dagupan City have arrested a husband and wife who were both listed among the city’s Most Wanted Persons in connection with a case involving the alleged abuse of a child.

The 49-year-old husband, ranked Top 9, and his 42-year-old wife, ranked Top 10 among the city-level Most Wanted Persons, were arrested separately on October 2, 2026, during coordinated police operations in Dagupan City.

The couple were arrested by virtue of Warrants of Arrest issued by a Regional Trial Court on September 22, 2026, for alleged violation of Section 10(a) of Republic Act 7610, or the Special Protection of Children Against Abuse, Exploitation and Discrimination Act. The court set a recommended bail of ₱160,000.00 for each accused.

The PNP emphasized that the warrants were served in accordance with established procedures, with the operations properly documented and the accused informed of the nature of the warrants and their constitutional rights.

Chief PNP PGen Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. said the arrests demonstrate the importance of sustained police coordination in ensuring that court processes are properly carried out, particularly in cases involving the protection of children.

“We have a duty to act when there is a valid warrant, but we also have a duty to do it the right way—with respect for the law and for the rights of everyone involved. Sa mga kasong may kinalaman sa mga bata, we must be especially careful and responsible because their protection remains a shared responsibility,” PGen Nartatez said.

The husband and wife underwent medical examination following their arrest and were subsequently placed under police custody for documentation and appropriate court proceedings.

The accomplishment is consistent with the PNP Focused Agenda, particularly the Enhanced Managing Police Operations (EMPO), which promotes coordinated, accountable, and lawful police operations. It likewise supports the administration of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. in strengthening public safety and protecting vulnerable members of society.

The PNP will continue to coordinate with the courts and concerned government agencies in ensuring that cases are pursued through proper legal processes, in keeping with its commitment to the “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.”
