CAMP OLIVAS, San Fernando, Pampanga (Mabuhay) – Philippine National Police chief Director General Ronald dela Rosa reiterated Monday his warning to police officers involved in illegal drugs to mend their ways or they will face his wrath.
“Ilang beses na tayong napapahiya, mga kasamahan ninyo dito, 77 itinapon sa Mindanao para mahinto yung kanilang operation sa illegal drugs,” Dela Rosa said in his speech before the Police Regional Office 3.
“Kung kayo ay sangkot sa ilegal na droga, huminto na kayo. Ako ang kalaban ninyo. I [will] not tolerate that to happen under my watch. Pipersonalin ko kayo pag kayo ay pulis na sangkot sa droga at kayo ay pulis na pumapatong sa droga … hindi ko kayo patatawarin,” he stressed.
Dela Rosa said that one police officer from Metro Manila who was assigned to Maguindanao had been killed recently.
“Pinaiimbestigahan pa kung bakit napatay doon sa Maguindanao,” he said.
He said police officers involved in illegal drugs should be charged and punished.
“Ang sinuman sa kapulisan na mapapatunayang kasangkot sa ilegal na droga ay mabibigyan ng nararapat na parusa, magbago na ang dapat magbago,” he said.
“This is your chance to save your career and live better lives. Huwag nyo na itong sayangin pa. Maging mabuting ehemplo kayo sa ating mga kababayan,” he added. (MNS)
