MANILA, Philippines — Retired General Jovito Palparan has been arrested and would be detained temporarily at the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), Justice Secretary Leila De Lima said.

Palparan was arrested early Tuesday at a house on Teresa St. in Sta. Mesa, Manila by virtue of an arrest warrant issued by the Malolos regional trial court on charges of kidnapping and serious illegal detention of University of the Philippines students Karen Empeño and Sherlyn Cadapan.
“Palparan will be temporarily detained at NBI to await commitment order from RTC Malolos,” De Lima said in a text message.
De Lima said Palparan, former Northern Luzon chief, was arrested by a composite team of the NBI Anti-Organized Crime Division and the Armed Forces’ Naval Intelligence Group.

Palparan has been in hiding for three years now. He is one of the “Big 5” most wanted men in the country. The other four are: Former Palawan Gov. Joel Reyes and his brother, former Coron Mayor Mario Reyes, former Dinagat Island Representative Ruben Ecleo Jr. and Globe Asiatique developer Delfin Lee. Lee has been arrested.
Palparan, called “the butcher” by political activists, went into hiding in December 2011 when he was ordered arrested by the Bulacan court in connection with the 2006 abduction of the two UP students.

"Because he's the hero PHILIPPINES deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark Knight."

Isn't murder and trying to escape enough?

Gen.Palparan is a true Patriot who gave his whole life in serving the country but look what the Pnoy Government did to him he was hunted like a fugitive painted by media as a butcher.......and all because of 2 missing students who are radicals&did Government has enough proof that indeed he is responsible?Purely circumstantial&yet the way it was presented he was guilty already.......I hope Gen.Palparan will have a speedy&fair trial!Mabuhay ka sir you are a true hero of the Filipino people...........

Gi-una unta nila ug dakop si Master Ruben Ecleo kay mas klaro nato nga convicted, kani hinuoon ila gi-una si Gen. Palparan nga tinahod sa AFP. Nangita lang gyud ug problema ang admin karon, simbako mahimo kining hitabo-a nga usa ka sugnod para coup d etat. Ayaw lang sad intawn kay magmaya ug samot ang China.
