ALREADY shocked to learn that five Philippine National Police generals have supposed ties with drug syndicates?
There’s more.
President Rodrigo Duterte’s startling revelation of the names of five generals allegedly involved in drugs was just the first wave, according to Philippine National Police chief Director General Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa.
There is a long list of policemen, including high-ranking officials, who are protecting drug syndicates or engaging themselves in illegal drug activities, Dela Rosa added.
He said people can expect the President to name more police officers who are coddling drug syndicates from the rank of Senior Superintendent down to Police Officer 1.
“For all we know, ang listahan ni Presidente hindi lang sa rank na senior superintendent, hanggang PO1 pa nga eh. Madami ’yung nasa listahan niya,” he said in a press briefing at Camp Crame on Wednesday.
The police chief met with the three active generals – Police Director Joel Pagdilao, Chief Supt. Edgardo Tinio and Chief Supt. Bernardo Diaz – in his office at the PNP headquarters.
Pagdilao, Tinio and Diaz, along with retired police officers Marcelo Garbo and Vicente Loot, were among the PNP generals Duterte identified as drug protectors in his speech on Tuesday at the 69th anniversary of the Philippine Air Force in Clark Field, Pampanga./ac
