00:00The Quezon City Police District will now start the dismissal proceedings against a patrolman
00:06who expressed his dissatisfaction with social media about politics
00:10while the authorities clarified that they cannot put the patrolman under restrictive custody
00:16until he returns to the service.
00:19This is what Ryan Leziguez wrote.
00:22We will never tolerate any breach of our duty to stay apolitical
00:30and we will serve with honor.
00:34Rest assured that accountability and public trust remain our top priority.
00:40The Quezon City Police District or QCPD will now start the dismissal proceedings
00:46against Patrolman Francis Steve Funtilias.
00:49This is if he will not continue his return to the service.
00:54Funtilias filed an emergency leave on March 5 from March 6 to March 19.
01:00It was not approved but he continued his leave to declare himself AWOL.
01:06What we are saying is that his AWOL case will continue
01:10that will tantamount to grave offense
01:13and those requirements will be included
01:17so that we can proceed with the hearing on his administrative case
01:24so that he can be dismissed from the service.
01:27March 11, he was transferred to the DMDO of the QCPD.
01:31On March 12, Funtilias started making noise on social media
01:35after former President Rodrigo Duterte was arrested.
01:39You can't order me around.
01:41I'm just a patrolman but you can't order me around.
01:45No matter who you are.
01:47Even if you are the President.
01:49Even if Bongbong Marcos orders me around,
01:53I will not obey him even if he removes me from the police force.
01:57The next day, March 13, the QCPD immediately held a home visitation
02:01to serve him the return to work order.
02:05The QCPD said that Funtilias may not be under the restrictive custody
02:10until he returns to active duty.
02:13But they continue to monitor the movement of the police
02:17especially on his social media.
02:19This is one of our dilemmas because we are finding ways
02:24that if he can post an inquestable offense, we will arrest him.
02:33His previous statements were done way before.
02:39We can't arrest him during the regulatory period.
02:45That's why we have regular filing on inciting to sedition.
02:50Funtilias was charged with inciting to sedition.
02:54The police are strictly prohibited from posting their contents
02:59on social media, especially if it is related to politics.
03:03Aside from this, 5 administrative cases were filed by the QCPD against the police.
03:09In 2023, the police found erratic behavior and mood swing
03:14so they put him under medication.
03:16But it seems that he is returning now.
03:19The reason is to request his commanding officer
03:22to put Funtilias under a neuropsychiatric exam.
03:25There are significant changes in mood, emotional outburst,
03:31and then this could further disrupt the normal functioning in the workplace.
03:37So this compelled his commanding officer to request for a neuropsychiatric examination.
03:50The problem is that he did not go under the medication.
03:54He said, I already know about this exam.
03:59I am taking this exam again and again.
04:02I already know what is written here.
04:04According to the statement of PNP chief, Police General Rommel Francisco Marvil,
04:08the political bias in the national police has no place
04:12and the organization cannot be used in the personal or political agenda.
04:17Funtilias entered the PNP in 2021.
04:22From here in Kampok Rame, Ryan Lizigas for Pambansang TV in Bagong, Philippines.
