BAGUIO CITY — The Philippine National Police Training Institute (PNPTI) has condemned an alleged rape incident reported at the Cordillera Administrative Region Training Center (CARTC) inside Teacher’s Camp, Baguio City.
A female police trainee filed criminal complaints against an officer assigned to the facility, accusing him of raping her twice. The first incident allegedly occurred on 20 January 2026, after the officer called the trainee to his barracks. The second allegedly took place on 8 February 2026, when she was again ordered to report to his quarters, where the assault was said to have happened.
Both incidents reportedly occurred between 1 a.m. and 2 a.m. inside the training facility.
PNPTI director PMGen. Roy B. Parena said the agency does not tolerate any form of misconduct or abuse of authority within its ranks. He added that a formal case has already been filed with the appropriate prosecutorial office, while administrative investigations are also underway.
The institute assured the public that justice will be pursued with transparency and urgency, stressing that those found guilty will face the full force of the law.
PNPTI also reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining a safe and respectful environment for all trainees and personnel, urging members of the police force to uphold the highest standards of integrity and discipline.
