00:00In other news, the nation's top cop, chief PNP, Romel Marbil, begs an audience with Kamala

00:07Khamish George Garcia to enlighten him and erase all doubts and worries over the enforcement

00:13of Oklang Katok.

00:14Still, the poll body head, Honcho, has reservations and misgivings about his firearm renewal scheme

00:21that could have political implications as we hear more from our Ryan Lisigas.

00:29We need to discuss with the chairman kasi po yung normal police duty po natin yan.

00:33And remember, ang firearms po nagagamit po sa violence yan.

00:36On Tuesday, the Philippine National Police or PNP is expected to meet the Commission

00:40on Elections to clarify concerns regarding Oklang Katok.

00:43According to PNP, this will be an opportunity for the police to present the mechanism of

00:48Oklang Katok, demonstrate how it works, and identify who exactly are up for police visits.

00:55Despite this, the PNP remains firm that it will not halt operations against loose firearms.

01:00This despite the Comelec's request to first present the operational plan and reassess

01:05the program before implementing it during the election period.

01:08For the Comelec, Oklang Katok could potentially be used for intimidation by candidates or

01:14for political purposes.

01:16However, according to PNP Chief Police General Romel Francisco Marbil, they will only pay

01:21visits to gun owners whose licenses have expired to remind them to renew.

01:25Marbil added having a list based on their data system of individuals with expired firearms

01:30licenses who need to be notified.

01:33He also stressed that Oklang Katok will not be used for political purposes or harassment.

01:38Ang kinakatok lang po namin yung mga unregistered firearms.

01:42Hindi po lahat ng bahay kinakatok namin ha, yung may mga barel na hindi po lagi ni-register

01:47kasi gusto namin i-account.

01:49Kasi kung hindi mo mag-register, we have to get it.

01:51Yun yung barel na yan kasi di ba may mga tao diyan nalilimutan nila.

01:55Asa na yung barel?

01:56That's the purpose of katok.

01:57The chief of the national police insists the implementation of Oklang Katok is not prohibited

02:02during the election period.

02:04According to the PNP, they are tracking over a million firearms with expired licenses based

02:09on their records.

02:10Since 2024, the PNP Firearms and Explosive Office has issued over 600,000 notices to

02:17gun owners with expired licenses.

02:19More than 347,000 of these cases resulted in license revocations due to non-renewal.

02:26In summary, over half a million notices still need to be sent to firearm owners.

02:31Nakapag ka nag-expire yung kanilang firearms registration, considered na po kasi yung barel

02:37na yun as loose firearms.

02:39Kaya nag-bloat po yung numero ng loose firearms natin kasi nadadagdag po doon yung mga nagpasuna
