The National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) on Sunday commended police officers from the Parañaque City Police Station for the successful rescue of a 26-year-old Chinese national who was allegedly kidnapped.

NCRPO director Police Major General Anthony Aberin praised the swift action that led to the victim’s recovery and the arrest of six suspects in Barangay Don Galo, Parañaque City, on Saturday.

The rescue operation began after police received a report through the PNP Hotline Facebook Page. Officers immediately responded to Room A1911 of the Marina Seaview Residence.

The victim was found there with four male suspects, aged 25 to 31, and one 39-year-old female suspect. All six suspects are foreigners.

Initial investigation revealed that the victim had allegedly been detained since Dec. 9, with the suspects demanding a P1 million ransom for his release. The victim disclosed that P500,000 had already been handed over.

All six suspects are now under police custody for proper investigation.

Aberin stressed that timely reporting and swift police response remain key in preventing serious crimes.
