ABOUT US

Description

PLEB is a check and balance mechanism created by law against erring policemen. Established via Republic Act No. 8551, PLEB is the central receiving entity for citizens’ complaints against any uniformed member of the Philippine National Police (PNP).

It has the power to hear and decide citizens’ complaints formally filed with, or referred to it, against any uniformed member of the PNP. Unlike other cases filed with the regular courts, the PLEB decides each case summarily.

Mission
