PILIPPINE POLICE SYSTEMS
· There are several police systems in the Philippines. On the
national level are the National Bureau of Investigation and the
Philippine Constabulary; at the local level each political entity has
its own police force.
I. HISTORICAL HIGHLIGHTS
· The Philippine National Police (PNP) originated from the Philippine
Constabulary or the PC, which was inaugurated on August 8, 1901,
establishing it as an insular police force under the American regime.
On August 8, 1975, Presidential Decree no. 765 was issued,
establishing the Philippine Constabulary Integrated National Police or
the PC/INP as the country’s national police force. These fragmented
and diverse local police units were integrated into a national police
force with the Philippine Constabulary as its nucleus.
· After the People’s Revolution in 1986, a new Constitution was promulgated
providing for a police force, which is “national in scope and civilian in character.”
Consequently, Republic Act No. 6975 entitled, “An Act Establishing the Philippine
National Police under a Reorganized Department of the Interior and Local
government (DILG),” was signed into law on December 13, 1990, which took effect
on January 1, 1991. Subsequently, the PNP was operational on January 29, 1991,
whose members were formerly the PC and the INP and the absorption of the
selected members from the major service units of the Armed Forces of the
Philippines such as the Philippine Air Force Security Command, the Philippine Coast
Guard, Philippine Navy, and the Philippine Army.

· Thus, to further strengthen the PNP into a highly efficient and competent police
force, Republic Act No. 8551 entitled “PNP Reform and the Reorganization Act of
1998” was enacted on February 17, 1998, amending certain provisions of Republic
Act No. 6975.

INTERPOL NOTICE - is an international alert circulated by Interpol to communicate information about crimes,
criminals, and threats by police in a member state (or an authorised international entity) to their counterparts around
the world. The information disseminated via notices concerns individuals wanted for serious crimes, missing
persons, unidentified bodies, possible threats, prison escapes, and criminals' modus operandi.

There are eight types of notices, seven of which are colour-coded by their function: red, blue, green, yellow, black,
orange, and purple. The best-known notice is the red notice which is the "closest instrument to an international arrest
warrant in use today". An eighth special notice is issued at the request of the United Nations Security Council.

Notices published by Interpol are made either on the organisation's own initiative or are based on requests from
national central bureaus (NCBs) of member states or authorised international entities such as the United Nations
and the International Criminal Court. All notices are published on Interpol's secure website. Extracts of notices may
also be published on Interpol's public website if the requesting entity agrees.

Interpol may only publish a notice that adheres to all the proper legal conditions. For example, a notice will not be
published if it violates Interpol's constitution, which forbids the organisation from undertaking activities of a political,
military, religious, or racial character. Interpol may refuse to publish a notice that it considers inadvisable or a
potential risk.

Notices may be issued in any of the four official languages of Interpol: English, French, Spanish, and Arabic.
