MOSCOW, Russia – President Duterte has said that he will finish off ninja cops or policemen who recycle illegal drugs seized during anti-narcotics operations with the remaining time he has as president.
Duterte made the statement after he revealed during the Vaidal Discussion Club Forum in Sochi, Russia that there are still two police generals playing with illegal drugs.
In a speech during his meeting with members of the Filipino community here, Duterte said that he will confront these ninja cops once he is back in the Philippines.
“Meron akong ninja ngayon pag-uwi talagang upakan ko itong mga p***g i***g pulis na ito,” he said.
According to Duterte, he ordered Department of the Interior and Local Government Secretary Eduardo Año to investigate the matter since policemen are under his turf.
However, the President made it clear that he despised these policemen. “Sabi ko, ‘Secretary Año, you investigate first because that is part of due process.’ Yung opisina ko kasi is not an investigating agency, it’s an Office of the President,” he said.
“DILG kasi pulis, jail, local governments, sa kanya ‘yan. Sabi ko, ‘Imbestigahin mo muna, bahala ka na. Basta ako, galit talaga ako sa mga yawa na ‘yan,’” he added. “Pero anyway, before my term ends, I have two years and so many months left, ubusin ko talaga itong mga p***g i*a na ‘to. Tignan mo,” he said.
Duterte has ordered a probe on Philippine National Police chief Police Gen. Oscar Albayalde for his alleged involvement in an irregular anti-drug operation in Pampanga in 2013.
Año said that he has started reviewing Albayalde’s case and will talk with the DILG and the National Police Commission about it once he was back in Manila. (Argyll Geducos)
