MMDA files case against abusive motorist who attacked a traffic constable
The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) will file criminal charges today against a Philip Morris executive who beat up a traffic constable in Quezon City last Saturday.
MMDA Chairman Francis Tolentino said he has directed the Legal Service to file direct assault charges against Robert Blair Carabuena, recruitment officer of the multinational tobacco company, on behalf of Traffic Constable Saturnino Fabros.
The criminal complaint will be filed today at the Office of the City Prosecutor in Quezon City.
“We cannot allow this aggression and shameless attack against our men who are only doing their job as best as they can, regardless of the risks they face in the streets every day,” Tolentino said
TV5 producers chanced upon a motorist – identified as Robert Blair Carabuena, a resourcing supervisor at Philip Morris International – manhandling an on-duty MMDA traffic enforcer. The incident took place at Capitol Hills Drive corner Tandang Sora in Quezon City.
In his LinkedIN profile, Carabuena is listed as an alumnus of Ateneo de Manila University and an “experienced recruitment executive.”
As of posting, Carabuena has refused to talk to TV5 regarding the incident.
Lawyer Vic Verdadero, an Atenean, said he just talked with MMDA Chairman Francis Tolentino who said that tomorrow they will file a case against Carabuena.
Dapat magsama itong si Carabuena at si Paulino Elevado, yung mayabang na customs clerk na Porsche ang kotse na nambaril ng dalawang estudyante.
Remember this story?
Boo Chanco said in Facebook: Ateneo shd have the right to recall its diploma in cases like this where it is shown the alumnus learned nothing from his education. This isn’t being man for others.
Asshole $%^&*! Is this what the Jesuits taught him?
Ipabugbug kaya natin.
Mga tadong gaya ni Carabuena dapat posasan agad at ikulong ng walang bail for a month isama sa hardcores sa preso para magtanda.
Wala bang karapatan ang MMDA enforcer gaya ng mga traffic police na manghuli ng mga tarantadong motorista?
“Experienced recruitment executive”, buhaghagin records ng mga recruits at agency nya baka fake.
He’s just a big F–a–t bully. Is there something about Ateneo that brings out the worst instead of the best? Look at the unlamented ex CJ Corona.
I wonder what could have triggered Carabuena’s rage? Probably being mulct by this MMDA enforcer as I’ve a few times been a victim. But what did I do whenever I get victimized by these so called enforcers? I tried to argue, but in the end I still surrendered my license and get ticketed. That’s the best I know how to get back at them instead of looking for the easy way out of paying them bribe money.
The best thing for Carabuena to do right now is to publicly apologize to Mr. Fabros and no need to explain why he went berserk. Just apologized and admit that he was an A-hole. He also needs to get a good lawyer coz he is in deep s***. 😛
granted for the sake of argument that this MMDA guy did something wrong, what this jerk Carabuena did was way far and beyond what a civilized person would do.
Una.Hindi po lahat ng mga taga Ateneo ay ganyan ang asal…Karamihan po sa amin ay mabait, di mayabang, at may magandang asal na turo ng aming mga magulang at mga paring Jesuita at mga guro namin at sumusunod sa batas.
Pangalawa. Karamihan po sa amin ay di naman mukhang baboy kagaya nya.
Sa lahat po ng blog ay ilagay na empleyado sya ng Philip Morris para palayasin na yan ni Ginoong Lucio Tan
Nagtatago na iyan. sigurado dahil di nya alam kung anong dilubyo ang bumagsak sa kanya…di pa rin ako naaawa.
Huwag sanang maging mayabang ang mga MMDA kasi marami sa inyo ay mga abusado at mangongotong…marami sa inyo ay mga hinayupak din
Ang mga MMDA traffic enforcers karamihan ay contractual workers o yung mga uso ngayon na kinukuha pa sa mga employment agency. Mababa pa sa minimum ang sahod nila dahil may kaltas ang agency. Karaniwan, kapit sa patalim ang pagtanggap ng ganyang sahod mabuhay lamang ang pamilya. Hindi rin nawawalan ng mga abusadong traffic enforcers, marami pa ngang nahuhuli on the spot na humihingi ng lagay kaya tanggal agad. Pero itong ginawa ni beautiful face, bigla nyang pinapangit ang kanyang pagkatao sa hindi makataong pagtrato at pag alipusta sa isang lowly worker. Hindi malayong ganun din ang trato nya sa kanyang kasambahay.
It is understandle that this jerk Carabuena is humiliated and vilified in public for what he did to the MMDA guy. What he did is condemnable. But to post his mobile number and his home address for the public to see? What’s the point? So that he can get lynched and get killed? Besides, I’m guessing it’s not only him who lives in his house. There could be minors, little kids who lives there with him and could be harmed.
Sana hanggang siya nalang ang murahin at kondenahin pero huwag na sanang idamay ang wala namang kasalanan.
By now, he should already learned his lesson and to apologize in public. No ifs, no buts.
Hala ka, Carabuena! Naisumbong ka na sa mga Tulfo! http://youtu.be/V3ZiaeLoR0E
Aba at may gana pang mag sampa ng kaso yung g@g€ng yan. Dapat huwag tantanan at huwag makipag areglo. Makatikim man lang ng malamig na rehas at dapat pagdusahan niya ang katarant@d%han niya. Tama ang suggestion na tanggalan ng lisensya para magtanda.
Tangnang mmda enforcer to, di kilala si Carabuena, hehe….
“I wonder what could have triggered Carabuena’s rage?”-mike
Binaha yung bahay nya, sira ang computer, tv, etc…wink!

Agree with commenter #9, stop making blanket accusations of any learning institution when one of their alums are on the wrong side of the law. Remember poster Norpil?
Ellen, ensure Fabros does not give in to whatever “dramas” this guy Carabuena show to the side of the mmda, they have the upper hand. Pag areglo ang labas ng case na tu, that’s it, kiss the justice system goodbye, it’s really dead.
Philip Morris statement:
We are aware of the incident involving our employee Robert Blair Carabuena.
The incident happened last Saturday (Aug. 11) and Mr. Carabuena was on his personal time and was not doing any work in behalf of the company when the incident took place.
While the complete facts surrounding the incident are not yet clear to make a full appreciation of the situation, the company would obviously not condone inappropriate conduct by any of our employees.
We understand the matter is being investigated by the authorities and we will monitor developments closely.
Fabros is a widower. He has six children. Lives in Payatas.
When a member of media called him up about the filing of charges against Carabuena, he replied:”Sandali lamang po at pinagluluto ko lang po ng tanghalian ang aking pamilya.”
It was learned that he asked for an afternoon duty because he has to cook and wash clothes and bring his six-year old child to school in the morning.
‘yan kasi hirap sa mga nagtitigastigasan, eh.
taragis. recruiting officer pa naman. and a psychology graduate, ‘ata.
a psycho.
ganyan na ba kababa ang kunyaring mataas na pagkatao ng kupal na carabuena na ‘yan? akala mo napakatapang, ah.
kaya lang niyang sindakin ay ‘yung katulad ng pobreng traffick enforcer na isang responsableng ama na kaya hindi siya pinatulan ay dahil MAS mahal ang kinabukasan ng kanyang mga anak kaysa anupamang bagay.
kunsabagay, tama ang ginawa nitong traffic enforcer – hindi siya pinatulan sapagkat ang katapat lamang ng baboy na carabuenang ‘yan ay matadero.
ganyan ba talaga ang karamihan sa mga taga-ateneo? puro hambog?
That is the very reason why traffic enforcer should also be a Police Officer who is authorized to use “reasonable” force against abusive motorist up to lethal to defend hisself. Try that antics with traffic officers with uniforms and training of Constable on Patrol.
“…….pobreng traffic enforcer……..
galit na naman, eh.
kung pantay lamang sana ang hustisya sa bansa, HINDI magkakaroon ng lakas ng loob ang mga katulad nitong baboy ramong si carabuena, eh.
ang masaklap, kayang bilhin ng katulad niyang maykaya ang hustisya at paikutin ang batas. katulad ng katulad niyang atenean na naging unang baboy.
matuloy kaya ang pagsasampa ng kaso? kung masampahan naman, maigawad naman kaya ang nararapat na parusa?
sana, HUWAG lang papayag sa aregulan ang pobreng si fabros. sa posibleng utos na rin ng kanyang mga superior.
“…..ana, HUWAG lang papayag sa AREGLUHAN ang pobreng si fabros. sa posibleng utos na rin ng kanyang mga superior.”
naman, eh!
Last week I had an opportunity to watch two traffic officer set up their speed radar in Front of my house because there are many complaints of speeders and there is a senior citizen residence nearby, a very busy Chinese grocery store and in a period Od three ours I counted more than 80 speeders stopped and ticketed. All kind of vehicles from mb to bently,my neighbor who also caught speeding even as i try to drive in front of him and gave hima flashing sign. yet not a whimper nor complaint from any of these motorists. Of course the cops are in uniform with their “ramming” vehicles in idle and always alert for any motorist who may not like getting a ticket. Told them to do it at once monthly. It is a good revenue source.
Talk about irony. Carabuena means good face. Literally, that is not true. Figuratively, the guy has lost face.
Reminds you of Rolito Go, who by the way, was “kidnapped”. Puntos na naman for CJ De Lima – the Chubby Justice; or is that Chatty Justice?
At #28 the same two officers set up their radar units at the same spots at the front of my house just now. May had a very good harvest two weeks ago. Now let’s see if motorists learned to drive within the limit. Just love to see the surprise in their faces when suddenly the cops just get on their way on directed them to park for their tickets.
Hindi sya tao , carabao-na is a beast ….
it looks he has a pack of marlboro light and the man at the back is munching philip morris.
Carababoy……. Sana ang natapatan mo kagaya ni Rolito Go at Jason Ivler!
#34. Yes Dan. Doon dapat niya ipakita ang pagkasiga niya.
