Cavite City Police Station “OPLAN CHECKMATE”

I. References:

1. Verbal instruction from the OIC, CAVITE CPS

2. To maintain peaceful and zero incident of crimes against property
within vicinity of Cavite City.

II. Purpose:

This OPLAN provides the guidelines and procedures to be undertaken

by Cavite City together with all City/Municipal Police Station, Local Government Unit
and other Law Enforcement Agencies to effectively thwart and neutralize carnapping
and other crimes against property that may occur within the Province of Cavite.

III. Situation:

Crimes against property including Theft, Robbery, Shoplifting, Arson, Vandalism,

Theft of Motorcycle and Carnapping remains significant concerns. It involves the
taking of property, money or some other benefit and does not include a threat or use
of force against the victim which usually happen in places where there is low police
visibility.

Carnapping is rampant in our country and we hear stories of it almost daily in the
news. This happens a lot because cars tend to easily sold whether it is for the car in
total or for spare parts. Usually, these vehicles are stripped down completely so they
can’t be found ever again.

The stolen motor vehicles are being repaint, changing the color which is different
from its color as registered in the LTO, changes the shape or form of the body,
tearing piece by piece or part, cleaning or repairing the whole engine, separating the
engine from the body, erasing and tampering serial or engine numbers to conceal
and avoid detection. After the changes are made, these motor vehicles are sold to
interested persons at a very cheap price. Further, these lawless elements most likely
use carnapped motor vehicles to conceal their identity and avoid being detected by
the authorities while furthering their criminal activities.

Carnappers operate anytime of the day by forcibly taking motor vehicles from the
owners, taking the motor vehicles while parked unattended and even boldly entering
houses and garages at the wee hours of the night, when possible, victims are sound
asleep and helpless in their abode. These kinds of lawless elements are armed with
firearms and other lethal weapons and are considered dangerous who are ready to
kill in furtherance of their motives and during their escape from possible arrest by the
police.

The existence of these criminal activities greatly affects peace and order, the vital
component of a progressive community. The maintenance of peace and order and
the security of life and property of the populace and investors boost commerce and
industry, thus ensuring economic development within the province.

To address the problem of motorcycle riding in tandem criminals and to protect

life and property, Cavite City shall introduce and adopt programs to thwart crime
against property and carnapping activities within the province thru Oplan Checkmate.

IV. Mission:
Cavite CPS, in coordination with the different police stations, Highway
Patrol Group, Land Transportation Office and the Provincial Government of Cavite
with the utmost support of the community shall take a more aggressive stance
against criminals particularly those involved in carnapping to maintain zero incident
within the city.
