“It seems the cops from the NCRPO who were busted
with 10 kilos of shabu were the pushers since they could not show the real
pushers they entrapped on the ten million pesos drugs?” I
posed recently to a middle ranking official of the Philippine National Police
who was formerly assigned at the NCRPO or National Capital Region Police
Office.
My question
was in reference on the two arrested civilian agents of the anti-drug unit of
the NCRPO in Baliuag, Bulacan last June 21 by the cops under the command of
Police Provincial Director Romeo Caramat ( a PMAyer and my former classmate at
a university in Pangasinan).
News
report cited that after the arrest of the two civilian agents who were found to
possess 10 kilos of illegal drugs’ shabu inside a Montero’s SUV, 12 NCRPO’s
operatives immediately appeared from nowhere and interceded that the two agents
worked with them for an on-going operation to arrest a bigger drug hoarders.
“I agree with your observation. The NCRPO operatives
would be in hot water especially from the no-nonsense Duterte administration,” he
said.
