Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG)

The Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) is a specialized unit within the Philippine National Police responsible for investigating serious crimes such as murder, kidnapping, robbery, and illegal drugs. Their goal is to gather evidence, identify suspects, and solve criminal cases to ensure justice and public safety.

They work closely with other law enforcement agencies and often handle complex or high-profile cases, playing a key role in maintaining law and order in the country.
