Tracking no: #PNP-222645610696 - "Inventory of Public Records" from Dipolog Police Station, Zamboanga del Norte, Mindanao;

You have withheld my Constitution Rights and broken the law PLCOL EDWIN VERZON, PCOL GLENN DULAWAN and BGEN NEIL ALINSANGAN

RA9470 - Heads of all government departments, bureaus, agencies and instrumentalities concerned shall endeavor and ensure the full public accessibility of said registry.

You are concealing a Public Registry to conceal a crime

BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE PHILIPPINES
EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 02

SECTION 6. Application and Interpretation. There shall be
a legal presumption in favor of access to information, public
records and official records. No request for information shall
be denied unless it clearly falls under any of the exceptions
listed in the inventory or updated inventory of exceptions
circularized by the Office of the President provided in the
preceding section.

The determination of the applicability of any of the exceptions
to the request shall be the responsibility of the Head of the
Office which is in custody or control of the information,
public record or official record, or the responsible central or
field officer duly designated by him in writing.

In making such determination, the Head of the Office or
his designated officer shall exercise reasonable diligence
to ensure that no exception shall be used or availed of
to deny any request for information or access to public
records, or official records if the denial is intended primarily
and purposely to cover up a crime, wrongdoing, graft or
corruption.

The Registry of Public Records must contain the "Desk Sergeant Log Books" I have been requesting to view, which contain evidence in the Attempted Murder of a Child, which you have denied my Constitution Rights to view, and concealed from me, stating they don't exist, when they do. 

You have now concealed the "Registry" from me, contrary to RA9470, and in breach of my Constitutional Rights

If the Registry does not contain the "Desk Sergeant Logs", that is a breach of RA9470, and a criminal offence

So either way, a crime has been committed, and you are concealing it, by committing another crime against me

Stop abusing children

As you have already had much more than 35 working days to fulfill my FOI request,  and waited until the 34th day to Deny and state you wanted a more detailed reason for my Request than "Legal" even though you have previously approved my Requests with the reason stated as "Legal", one would expect this is processed well within the 15 days allowable. 

I also point out the LAW;
