Parañaque City police operatives arrested a 47-year-old man identified as alias “Nori,” one of the city's most wanted suspects, during an intensified anti-crime operation over the weekend.

“Nori” was ranked No. 9 on the Southern Police District's list of most wanted persons for June 2025, and No. 3 at the station level.

The suspect, a motorcycle rider and resident of Parañaque City, was apprehended around 10:15 AM on 1 June along 1st Street, Ilaya Santo Niño, by virtue of a warrant of arrest for carnapping under Section 3 of Republic Act 10883.

The warrant was issued on 21 May 2025, by Branch 274 of the Regional Trial Court in Parañaque, with a recommended bail of P300,000.

The arrest was conducted by members of the Warrant and Subpoena Section of the Parañaque City Police Station, under the direct supervision of city police chief Col. Melvin R. Montante.

The suspect is now detained at the station’s custodial facility, pending the return of the warrant to the issuing court.

Acting Southern Police District Director Brig. Gen. Joseph R. Arguelles commended the swift and coordinated action of the Parañaque police, saying the arrest reflects the district’s continuing commitment to enforce the law and ensure public safety.

“There is no place to hide, and there is a consequence for every offense,” Arguelles said.
