Chavez, a taxpayer and gun owner himself, said the implementing guidelines issued by the Philippine National Police (PNP) on Jan. 31 in line with Mrs. Arroyo’s directive should be nullified for being unconstitutional.


He asked for a temporary restraining order as he raised several issues as to why the gun ban is violative of existing laws.
