Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson lauded police over the weekend for their silent and disciplined work in making a breakthrough in the investigation into the killing of Basilan Judge Joseph Wee Sit in Zamboanga City last Thursday.

In a post on X Saturday evening, Lacson said methodical efficiency is the key to cracking cases, particularly high-profile ones like the killing of Wee Sit.

“This is how high-profile cases are cracked: silent, precise, disciplined, and with methodical efficiency. No fanfare; just results. Congratulations!” he said.

Police on Saturday filed a murder complaint before the Zamboanga City Prosecutor’s Office against three suspects linked to the killing of Wee Sit last Thursday.

According to reports, the respondents include the suspected gunman, a motorcycle driver, and the driver of a second getaway vehicle.

Police Regional Office 9 spokesperson P/Lt. Col. Shellamie Chang was quoted as saying the filing stemmed from a case buildup by the Special Investigation Task Group Wee Sit, and involved judicial affidavits and documentary and forensic evidence.

Lacson, who headed the Philippine National Police from 1999 to 2001 and who built a track record of solving high-profile cases through intelligence work, had stressed the importance of “secrecy discipline” in pursuing high-profile targets.

“SSSHHH… : When pursuing a high-profile target or handling a sensitive live case, secrecy discipline is key – unless disinformation is necessary to flush the quarry into the open,” he said.

Lacson, Pinuri ang Pulisya sa Tahimik at Disiplinadong Pagtatrabaho sa ‘Paglutas’ sa Pagpatay sa Hukom sa Basilan

Pinuri ni Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson nitong weekend ang pulisya sa tahimik at disiplinadong pagtatrabaho nito na nagbunga ng malaking pag-usad sa imbestigasyon sa pagpatay kay Basilan Judge Joseph Wee Sit sa Zamboanga City noong Huwebes.

Sa isang post sa X nitong Sabado ng gabi, sinabi ni Lacson na mahalaga ang sistematiko at mahusay na pagtatrabaho sa paglutas ng mga kaso, lalo na ang mga high-profile na kaso tulad ng pagpatay kay Wee Sit.

“This is how high-profile cases are cracked: silent, precise, disciplined, and with methodical efficiency. No fanfare; just results. Congratulations!” aniya.

Naghain ang pulisya nitong Sabado ng reklamong murder sa Zamboanga City Prosecutor’s Office laban sa tatlong suspek na iniuugnay sa pagpatay kay Wee Sit noong Huwebes.

Ayon sa mga ulat, kabilang sa mga respondent ang hinihinalang bumaril sa biktima, ang nagmaneho ng motorsiklo, at ang drayber ng ikalawang getaway vehicle.

Sinabi umano ni Police Regional Office 9 spokesperson P/Lt. Col. Shellamie Chang na bunga ang paghahain ng reklamo ng masusing pagbuo ng kaso ng Special Investigation Task Group Wee Sit, na kinapapalooban ng mga judicial affidavit at documentary at forensic evidence.

Bilang hepe ng Philippine National Police mula 1999 hanggang 2001, nakapagtatag si Lacson ng track record sa paglutas ng mga high-profile na kaso sa pamamagitan ng intelligence work. Binigyang-diin din niya noon ang kahalagahan ng “secrecy discipline” sa pagtugis sa mga high-profile na target.

“SSSHHH… : When pursuing a high-profile target or handling a sensitive live case, secrecy discipline is key – unless disinformation is necessary to flush the quarry into the open,” aniya.
