Muling nabanggit ang Philippine National Police (PNP) sa artikulong inilabas ng U.S. entertainment at news site na People nitong Nobyembre 7, 2026.
May kinalaman ang ulat sa paghingi ng paumanhin ng PNP kay Thomas Markle Jr., ang kapatid sa ama ni Meghan Markle, na Duchess of Sussex at asawa ni Prince Harry ng England.
Nakatira si Thomas Jr. sa Cebu at siya ang nag-alerto sa mga pulis tungkol sa mga suspected child sexual abuse materials na nasa pag-iingat umano ng kanyang ama na si Thomas Sr., na nanirahan sa Cebu bago bumalik sa U.S. noong Mayo 2026.
Ang paghingi raw ng paumanhin kay Thomas Jr. ay bunsod ng pagtawag sa kanya bilang “person of interest” sa imbestigasyon tungkol sa ibinibintang sa ama nila ni Meghan.
Nakasaad sa artikulo ng People: "Just days after the country’s interior secretary, Juanito Victor Remulla, said Thomas Jr., who is Meghan Markle‘s half-brother, was a 'person of interest,' authorities have resolved the matter and apologized to him, according to The Telegraph and The Sun.
"Remulla previously said at a press conference, according to The Telegraph: 'There are indications suggesting that the son may also be involved in the crime, but only as a person of interest so far. He is not yet treated as a suspect.'
"The interior secretary indicated that witnesses told police that underage girls had been brought to Thomas Jr.’s home in Cordova, Philippines, stating, 'We had witnesses who testified that underage girls were being brought to his house, with ring lights, through the windows.'"
Pero ayon pa rin sa report ng The Telegraph, dinenay ni Thomas Jr. ang alegasyon at sinabing para sa Tiktok ang kanyang mga videos.
Ang ulat naman ng The Sun, "cleared up" na raw ang pagkakadawit kay Thumas Jr. ng Cordova police matapos makausap ang kanyang "social circle" pati na rin ang finacee niyang si Rose Ann Gabuy.
"The outlet said senior officers with the Philippine National Police (PNP) issued an apology to Thomas Jr. over the phone on Friday, Nov. 6.”
LATES UPDATE ON THOMAS MARKLE SR.'S ALLEGED OFFENSE
Ang latest update naman dito sa Pilipinas ay naghahanap ang PNP ng mga accomplice ni Thomas Sr.
"Child exploitation is not the work of one person alone when others enable, facilitate, or profit from the abuse,” ang pahayag ni PNP Chief General Jose Melencio Nartatez Jr. kahapon, November 8.
Saad pa niya: “We will pursue every lead, identify everyone involved, and make sure that no individuals who prey on children or help perpetrators evade accountability are beyond the reach of the law."
