A wanted fugitive facing multiple counts of falsification was taken into custody during an operation by the Southern Police District (SPD) on Wednesday evening, October 7, 2026, in BF Homes, Parañaque City.
Under the leadership of SPD District Director PBGen. Rodel A. Pastor, operatives from the District Special Operations Unit (DSOU), in coordination with the District Intelligence Division, the District Mobile Force Battalion Intelligence Section, and the Parañaque City Police Station, successfully apprehended the 37-year-old suspect, identified by the alias “Andrew,” at approximately 6:40 PM along Aguirre Street.
The arrest was executed pursuant to a warrant of arrest issued on October 2, 2026, by Presiding Judge of the Metropolitan Trial Court National Capital Judicial Region Branch 77 in Parañaque City.
The suspect faces four counts of Falsification of Public Document under Criminal Case Nos. 26-1957-60, with a recommended bail of ₱18,000 for each count.
During the apprehension, arresting officers strictly adhered to Supreme Court Resolution A.M. No. 21-06-08-SC by utilizing an Alternative Recording Device (ARD).
The accused was formally apprised of his constitutional rights and informed of the nature of his arrest in Tagalog, a language he understood, and chose to remain silent.
The suspect was subsequently brought to the DSOU-SPD office for proper documentation, medical clearance, and the formal return of the warrant to the issuing court.

“Our operations to locate wanted persons will continue without letup. We will serve lawful warrants and ensure that those sought by the law are brought before the proper court. No one should expect to evade the law indefinitely,” PBGen. Pastor stated.
