MANILA, Philippines — The Philippine National Police Integrity Monitoring and Enforcement Group (PNP-IMEG) arrested over the weekend a 33-year-old man who allegedly posed as a PNP-Imeg to avoid suspicion he was keeping loose firearms and explosives.

IMEG operatives nabbed Ruel Abella of Barangay Canlumampao, Toledo City, and recovered from him a .45-caliber pistol and a hand grenade.

A 16-year-old neighbor, who was with Abella at Barangay Lutopan, was also arrested when he attempted to flee.
