    “Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs or LPRs) are AI-powered cameras that capture and analyze images of all passing vehicles, storing details like your car's location, date, and time.

    These cameras collect data on millions of vehicles regardless of whether the driver is suspected of a crime. These systems are marketed as indispensable tools to fight crime, but they ignore the powerful tools police already have to track criminals, such as cell phone location data, creating a loophole that doesn't require a warrant…”

  16. Four Suspects Arrested In Parañaque City For Stealing Telecom Cables

    Recently in the City of Parañaque, local police officers arrested four suspects over the illegal cutting and the attempt to steal underground copper telecommunications cables, according to a news report by The Daily Tribune.

    To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of The Daily Tribune. Some parts in boldface…

    National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) Chief P/Maj. Gen. Anthony Aberin commended the swift coordination between security personnel and responding police officers, which resulted in the prompt arrest of four adult male suspects and the recovery of stolen telecommunications equipment.

    The incident occurred at around 4:20 a.m. on Friday, 24 April, in front of a gasoline station along Doña Soledad Avenue corner West Service Road, Barangay Don Bosco.

    While conducting routine area monitoring, arresting officers intercepted the suspects in the act of illegally cutting and taking underground copper telecommunications cables.

    Initial reports showed that security personnel in the area immediately alerted authorities upon noticing the suspicious activity, prompting a coordinated swift police response that resulted in the on-site arrest of four individuals. However, nine of their cohorts managed to flee and are currently the subject of follow-up operations.

    Recovered from the scene were several pieces of cut underground copper cable wires measuring approximately two meters in length, with an estimated amount of P262,006.63.

    Seized were tools and equipment used in the illegal activity, including a bolt cutter, an improvised steel hook, a white closed van and a motorcycle believed to have been used in the operation.

    The suspects are now under police custody and are facing charges for violation of Section 4(d) of Republic Act 10515, also known as the Anti-Cable Television and Cable Internet Tapping Act of 2013.

    Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, did the cutting of the telecommunication cables affect your household somehow? Do you think Parañaque City is becoming a new hot spot for the stealing of telecommunication cables?

  17. Five Drug Suspects Arrested In Parañaque City And lllegal Drugs Worth P91 Million Seized

    Recently in the City of Parañaque, local police officers successfully pulled off a major anti-drug operation that resulted in five suspects – including one former policeman – arrested and the seizure of illegal drugs worth more than P91 million, according to a Manila Bulletin news report.

    To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…

    A former policeman and four alleged high-value drug suspects were arrested in a major anti-drug operation that led to the seizure of more than P91 million worth of suspected shabu and high-powered firearms in Parañaque City on Friday, April 10.

    Operatives of the Southern Police District (SPD) Drug Enforcement Unit (DEU) identified the suspects as alias Bossing, 35; James, 49, a resigned member of the Philippine National Police (PNP); Jezreel, 29; Hazel, 25; and alias “Ricardo,” 48.

    All five were tagged as newly identified high-value individuals (HVIs) and were apprehended during a buy-bust operation conducted in Sun Valley, Parañaque, following days of surveillance and intelligence monitoring.

    Authorities said the operation was launched in coordination with other police units to dismantle a suspected drug syndicate operating in the southern Metro Manila.

    Confiscated during the sting were approximately 13.389 kilograms of suspected shabu and five containers of liquid crystalline substance, with a combined estimated Standard drug price of P91,045,200.

    Police also recovered two .45-caliber pistols, a Bushmaster rifle, communication devices, and P319,950 cash.

    Authorities said the presence of high-powered firearms indicates the group’s capability to protect their illegal activities, raising concerns over the potential violence linked to drug trafficking operations.

    “This operation sends a clear message that no drug syndicate is beyond our reach. The Southern Police District will relentlessly pursue those involved in the illegal drug trade and ensure they are brought to justice,” said acting SPD director Col. Glenn Oliver Cinco.

    Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, are you convinced that drug syndicates find the city an ideal place to do their illegal businesses while having the mean to cause harm to local residents? What do you think makes Parañaque an attractive city to those involved in illegal drugs?

    To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…

  19. Two Suspects Arrested In Parañaque City Over Illegal Substances Worth More Than P3.7 Million

    Recently in the City of Parañaque, the local police successfully pulled off a buy-bust operation that resulted in two suspects arrested and the seizure of illegal substances worth over P3.7 million, according to a Manila Bulletin news report.

    To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…

    Police arrested two high-value targets and seized more than P3.7 million worth of shabu in a buy-bust operation in Parañaque City.

    Parañaque City Police chief Col. Nicolas Pinon said the suspects, identified as Toto, 52, and Ronnie, 53, both residents of Manuyo Dos, Las Piñas City, were arrested in Barangay San Isidro.

    Pinon said the Station Drug Enforcement Unit (SDEU) launched the operation after receiving information that the suspects, though based in Las Piñas, were conducting illegal drug activities in Parañaque.

    The suspects were caught selling 25 grams of shabu worth P170,000 to an undercover police officer. Further search led to the recovery of 11 additional sachets of shabu weighing about 525 grams, valued at P3,750,000, inside a black eco bag.

    In total, authorities confiscated around 550 grams of shabu worth P3,740,000, along with a Redmi cellphone and the buy-bust money.

    The suspects are now detained at the police custodial facility and face charges for violating Republic Act 9165, or the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.

    Brig. Gen. Randy Arceo, Southern Police District (SPD) director, said the arrest highlights the police’s continued commitment to combating illegal drugs.

    Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, do you think there could be more individuals from different places doing illegal drug activities in the city? Why do you think Parañaque is a hot spot when it comes to illegal drugs?
