We will let the fiscal handle the disposition of this case.)The gun seized from the suspect does not have a serial number, Eleazar added.&quot;It will be subjected to ballistic investigation at ito ang magiging basehan natin para sa pagfafile ng kaso,&quot; he said.The PNP chief, meanwhile, reminded his personnel and force multipliers such as village watchmen to enforce &quot;maximum tolerance.&quot;&quot;Wala naman tayong inaaresto. Tinitiketan lang natin, binibigyan ng warning o di kaya pinagmumulta,&quot; he said.(We don&#x27;t really arrest anybody. We just issue a ticket, warn them or fine them.)&quot;In the case of force multipliers, we really appreciate and recognize them pero s&#x27;yempre lahat tayo may pananagutan sa anumang ating mga gagawin (but we all have to be responsible for our actions).&quot;In May, a man with autism was shot dead by a policeman during a supposed raid of an illegal cockfighting session.
