(Eagle News)–President Rodrigo Duterte reiterated anew his warning to unscrupulous law enforcers after the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency said some “ninja cops” recycle illegal drugs.
The President gave the warning in a speech in Parañaque on Wednesday, Sept. 25, after the Senate approved the disclosure of the names of the policemen engaged in the “agaw-bato” scheme and said a list would be given to the President.
Authorities have identified the woman who allegedly bought the drugs from the policemen, saying operations were ongoing against her.
The Bureau of Immigration has said Guia Gomez Castro was already out of the country.
“There are some people, like policemen, you have to beg, then they are at it again, and they sell drugs and they go scot-free and they think that they are the lords of this country. Well, I’m sorry to tell you, everybody dies in this world but you will go ahead first. Remember that,” Duterte said.
The President declared a war on drugs in 2016, since he assumed office.
