MANILA, Philippines — The Commission on Human Rights is now looking into possible violations by personnel of the Philippine National Police in the conduct of their arrest of community doctor Natividad Castro, it said Monday. 

 

Speaking in an interview aired over ANC, newly minted CHR chairperson Leah Tanodra-Armamento conceded that the arrest was valid due to the warrant issued by a court, but said that its execution left much to be desired. 

 

"What we are looking at is the way they conducted the arrest...There is an allegation that some [officers] are not in uniform, they were not properly identified. And then the force deployed is more than what is required...So we are looking into this, whether our arresting officers followed the rule of procedure," she said.
