Our policeman, Police Senior Master Sergeant [Roland Voni] Madrona, I will defend him. He did his job well,” Año said over ANC when asked if Madrona committed lapses in the attempt to arrest the foreigner in front of a house in Makati. Based on the video taken by Parra’s wife, Madrona was seen tackling Parra to the ground as he tried to arrest him. Parra said he suffered from spinal injury and abrasions after the police officer tackled him to the ground. But Año explained that the policeman was only enforcing quarantine protocols when Parra started hurling expletives against Madrona.
