MANILA, Philippines- Pinalagan ng graduates ng Philippine National Police Academy (PNPA) ang isang politiko sa Davao City na nagbanta umanong sasampalin ang hepe ng Davao regional police force na si Police Brig. Gen. Nicolas Torre III.
Inihayag ng Lakan Community (graduates ng PNPA) na ang banta ay simpleng harassment at bullying laban sa respetadong opisyal ng PNP na anila’y ginagawa lamang ang kanyang trabaho.
“It has come to our attention that Sir Nick has been subjected to bullying and mistreatment by a powerful politician in Davao City, and we want him to know that such behavior is unacceptable and has no place in our community,” pahayag ng mga ito.
“We, the members of the Lakan Community, should stand together in solidarity in supporting Lakan PBGen Nicolas D. Torre III,” dagdag pa.
Si Torre ay miyembro ng PNPA Class 1993.
Nag-ugat ang umano’y harassment at bullying sa pagsisiwalat ni Torre sa manipulasyon ng crime statistics sa Davao City upang palabasin umanong mababa ang crime rates sa lugar.
Aniya, naglalaman ang blotter reports ng pekeng entries o may markang “for record only,” na nangangahulugang idinokumento subalit hindi iniulat na aktuwal na krimen.
Dahil dito, sinibak ni Torre ang Davao City police director at 19 pang station commanders ng Davao City.
Bagama’t hindi binanggit ang pangalan ng politiko, matatandaang sinabi ni Davao City Mayor Sebastian Duterte na sasampalin niya si Torre sakaling makita niya ito dahil sa pahayag ng huli na kumukuwestiyon sa Davao City crime data.
“As a community, we value and uphold principles of respect, kindness, and empathy towards one another. We are deeply troubled by the actions of the politician and we should assure our Lakan brother that we fully support him in standing up against this injustice,” saad sa pahayag ng PNPA graduates.
“Together, we condemn all forms of bullying, harassment, and abuse, and we are committed to creating a safe and inclusive environment where everyone can feel respected and supported,” anito pa.
“We should make him feel that he is not alone in this struggle. The strength of our community lies in our unity, and we are here to stand by his side, provide comfort, and advocate for justice on his behalf.”
“With Sir Nick’s resilience, courage, and inner strength, we are confident that together, we can overcome this challenge and emerge stronger as a community.”
“Let us remember that to be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears,” base sa pahayag. RNT/SA
