PHILIPPINE National Police (PNP) chief Oscar Albayalde ordered on Tuesday, May 1, the relief of three policemen who were seen in a viral video confronting a family in Caloocan City following a traffic altercation.
PNP spokesperson John Bulalacao identified the three policemen as Police Officer 3 Ralph Soriano who is assigned at the Northern Police District and his brothers Police Officer 1 Rendel and Reniel, members of the Caloocan City Police Station and PNP-Drug Enforcement Group, respectively.
In a viral video uploaded by Jessie Malaya on Sunday, the Soriano brothers who were not in uniform could be seen confronting Jessie's father Ricardo in front of their residence on Mabini Street in Caloocan City on April 28, 2018.
They also tried to intimidate the Malaya family with their firearms, although they were warned of the election gun ban which prohibits anyone to carry their firearms outside their residence unless they were members of the law enforcement agency in active duty and in full uniform.
