ISANG babaeng public school teacher sa Mindanao ang napatunayang nasa likod ng pekeng Facebook post na umano’y nag-uutos si Philippine National Police (PNP) acting chief Lieutenant General Jose Melencio Nartatez Jr. sa lahat ng parak na huwag sundin ang utos ni Pangulong Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.

Ayon kay PNP spokesperson Brigadier Gen. Randulf T. Tuaño, nag-iimbestiga na ang PNP Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) at Anti-Cybercrime Group (ACG) kung sino pa ang mga nasa likod ng post na tinanggal na.

“According to the CIDG and the ACG, they have already identified the person behind this disinformation. The accused, a female professional from Mindanao, has been subpoenaed by the PNP-CIDG to appear for an investigation,” sabi ng PNP spokesperson.

Kung mapatutunayang nagkasala, mahaharap ang teacher sa mga criminal charges “for peddling false information on social media under Republic Act 10175 or the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012.”

Idineny din ng PNP spokesperson na may utos na ganoon si Nartatez.

“These statements are fabricated and malicious, intended to spread confusion and discredit our institution. The PNP remains steadfast in its allegiance to the Constitution, committed to following lawful orders from our Commander-in-Chief, President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., and other duly constituted authorities, while upholding the highest standards of integrity, discipline, and professionalism in all our operations,” sabi ni Tuaño.

“ Our loyalty is to the Filipino people and to the rule of law,” sabi ng heneral.

Nanawagan si Tuaño na i-verify muna ang lahat ng impormasyon at huwag basta-basta naniniwala sa mga balita lalo na kung galing sa mga social network.
