The advisory body conducting a secretive probe of senior Philippine National Police (PNP) officials said it is moving at an “unprecedented” pace and has already screened a third of the more than 900 colonels and generals.

During its second meeting on Wednesday, March 1, in Camp Crame, Quezon City, the five-man committee processed 217 senior police officers “after thorough evaluation,” while the remaining more than 600 are set to be evaluated in the coming weeks either in person or through video conferencing, according to Col. Redrico Maranan, PNP public information office chief.
