00:00The two police officers in Manila who were driving without helmets caught and arrested a traffic enforcer in Valenzuela.
00:10They were disarmed and are now in Preventive Custody.
00:15Mark Salazar was arrested in Asunto.
00:19He was arrested by CCTV in Barangay Mabolo, Valenzuela City on the early morning of July 14.
00:27It was not only an incident of road rage but also a case of police abuse.
00:32The one wearing a red jacket is Ronaldo David, a traffic enforcer and victim of this case.
00:40The two officers who approached him were police officers who were seen pulling a gun and punching Ronaldo in the face.
00:48The one who pulled and punched was Police Staff Sergeant Ernesto Camacho.
00:53Police Staff Sergeant Robert Cabudoy was the one wearing a black T-shirt.
01:10Thank you very much for arresting that person.
01:13They should not have pulled a gun on their friend.
01:19Before reaching this scene, their motorcycles were in a stoplight.
01:25The police officers were not wearing helmets.
01:27They were shocked by the way David looked at them.
01:31I just looked at them.
01:33I told them that they were not wearing helmets.
01:36But at first, they suddenly pulled a gun on me.
01:40Sir Cabudoy told me that it was wrong to look at them.
01:44I left them because that's how they are.
01:48At first, they even called me and told me to stop.
01:54Camacho was the only one who was punched but Cabudoy was the one who pulled a gun.
01:58Sir Cabudoy saw me pulling a gun on him.
02:02His gun was here.
02:04When he approached me, I couldn't see him because of the CCTV.
02:07He grabbed my gun and told me that he wanted to kill me.
02:13Valenzuela Mayor Wes Gatchalian was furious when his Traffic Enforcer was caught by two Manila Police.
02:21The police officers here in our area are not welcome.
02:25Don't go to places like this where you are being harassed because you are a police officer and you have a higher rank than a Traffic Enforcer.
02:34The commander of Police Station 12 of the MPD in Valenzuela Police was informed and promised to take action.
02:41He told me that at that time, he didn't know the people involved.
02:50Honestly, he said that he was a new take-post as a station commander of Delpan for just one week.
02:58When we talked, he said that he will look for the two people involved.
03:06While Mayor Gatchalian was having a press conference, MPD Director Brigadier General Arnold Ibay texted
03:13to say that the two police officers were disarmed and are now in preventive custody in the District Personnel Holding and Accounting Section.
03:22The administrative case against them has already started.
03:25The victim also filed a criminal case earlier.
03:29Interior Secretary Benjur Abalo reminded the PNP of the importance of quick action in cases like this of police abuse.
03:37Disciplinary action must be taken immediately to show the public that police abuse is not allowed in the PNP.
03:45The MPD has not yet issued a new statement, even though the two police officers are in their custody.
03:52For GMA Integrated News, Mark Salazar.
