COTABATO CITY --- Local police in
Parang, Maguindanao, filed last June 4 usurpation of authority and illegal
possession of firearm charges against a man who posed as a police officer.
Superintendent Ibrahim Jambiran, Parang police chief, identified the suspect as Jaded Ibrahim Mangodacan, who went around town as “Police Officer 2 Mangondacan.”
Police seized from Mangondacan a 9mm Glock pistol, ammunition, police uniform, various police identification cards, and patches.
Jambiran said the town police received a tip from a concerned citizen about a man in police uniform suspiciously roaming around the town's public market.
Jambiran said the tipster, who personally knew Mangondacan, a native of Lanao del Sur, told police the suspect was not a law enforcer.
The suspect did not resist arrest when police accosted him.
Jambiran said Mangondacan was charged with violation of Republic Act 10591 for gun possession, usurpation of authority and falsification of public documents. (Edwin Fernandez, PNA - Cotabato/MINDANAO EXPOSE’)
