Itinanggi ni NCRPO Acting Regional Director PBGen Jonnel Estomo, ang mga impormasyon na kumakalat sa social media kaugnay sa kidnapping ng mga kababaihan sa Metro Manila.
“We conducted an investigation regarding this sensational surge in social media reporting of crimes and we found out that most of these incidents were either false or were previously reported cases already categorized as “solved” in our data base”,ayon kay Estomo.
Sa kasalukuyang data ng crime sa Metro Manila ,bumaba pa umano ang mga nagaganap na krimen sa Metro Manila noong magsimulang manungkulan si Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos Jr. at sa.pangkalahatan ay bumaba pa ito ng 72.45%.
“Actual data will not lie against mere social media hype. Indeed, we do not deny that crimes occur. But the problem lies in exaggeratedly highlighting them in various platforms as if they reflect the totality of the actual peace and order situation casting into shadow the fact that these crimes were either already being attended to by the police or were previous occurrences already solved in the past,”dagdag pa ni Marcos.
Tiniyak ni Estomo na nasa maayos na sitwasyon ang Metro Manila at kontrolado ang peace and order.
“We will not be lax in our laurels despite the continuing downtrend in crime occurrence. Sustainable efforts and initiatives geared to further bolster the continuing decrease of crime occurrence were being implemented and invigorated to ensure that the community is safe and orderly.” dagdag ni Estomo.
Samantala sa harap ng mga reports sa social media ng mga pagdukot sa mga kababaihan,nagsagawa naman ang Manila Police District(MPD),kahapon ng alas 10 ng umaga ng Simulation exercise ng abduction case ng isang 12 anyos na dalagita na ginawa sa harap ng Jose Rizal Elementary School sa Tondo.
