More sexual abuse raps filed vs PNPA exec

MANILA, Philippines — Two more cadets of the Philippine National Police Academy in Silang, Cavite have filed complaints of sexual abuse against a PNPA official who was arrested in July for a similar offense.

The complainants said the suspect, a police major and tactical officer at the PNPA, brought them to his quarters where the abuse happened.

They said the abuses also occurred in July.

PNPA chief Brig. Gen. Andre Dizon said one of the complainants is facing dismissal for violating the honor code while the other has academic problems.

“The suspect offered to help cadets with problems in their schooling. By doing so, he was able to earn their trust, which led to abuses,” Dizon said.
