Philippine National Police

Edit


Philippine National Police (PNP) is the primary Law Enforcement Agency and Investigation Forces under the direct supervision of the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG), they were featured on the top rating action-drama series of ABS-CBN's FPJ's Ang Probinsyano. But in the late seasons of the series and other series such as Batang Quiapo and The Iron Heart, National Law Enforcement Agency (NLEA) was introduced as replacement to the PNP.

If the PNP/NLEA cannot handle any High-profile cases, the Criminal Investigation Bureau/CIB will do the tasks.

About[]

Passed on December 13, 1990, Republic Act No. 6975, the Department of the Interior and Local Government Act of 1990 paved the way for a new era for Philippine law enforcement as the law ordered the total merger of both the Philippine Constabulary and the Integrated National Police and formally created the Philippine National Police. R.A. 6975 was further amended by R.A. 8551, the Philippine National Police Reform and Reorganization Act of 1998, and by R.A. 9708. The R.A. 8551 envisioned the PNP to be a community- and service-oriented agency.

Trivia:[]

  • In the latter two seasons of Ang Probinsyano (8 and 9), the PNP has rebranded as National Law Enforcement Agency due to " Copyright " reasons and after the Shut-Down of the TV Network ABS-CBN.
    • The PNP/NLEA officers were wearing black similar to SWAT or AVSEGROUP.
  • For some reasons, the PNP always deploys their CIDG operatives (even with Bulletproof vests) in numerous raids against Criminals and high-value targets as well as during the Hostage situation, supposedly they should deploy the Special Weapons and Tactics or SWAT units and Special Action Force/SAF operators.
