Senator Christopher “Bong” Go has expressed disappointment over the re-emergence of the issue of “ninja cops,” and called on authorities to remain relentless in the fight against criminality and illegal drugs.
“Kayo na po ang humusga kung nakakalakad ba ang inyong mga anak na hindi nababastos, nasasaktan. Dahil po ‘yan sa sakripisyo ni pangulong Duterte na labanan po ang kriminalidad at iligal na droga [Let you be the judge if your children can walk freely without getting harassed or hurt. That is because of the sacrifices of former president Duterte to fight criminality and illegal drugs],” added Go.
“Kapag kumalat po ang droga sa daan, marami na naman pong pamilya ang masisira [If illegal drugs proliferate in the streets, many families will be destroyed],” he added. Meanwhile, in a hearing at the House of Representatives on the same day, the House Committee on Dangerous Drugs revealed that only 30% of the confiscated drugs are declared by the “ninja cops” and their informants, with the rest being recycled and sold for profit.Furthermore, it was noted that corrupt anti-drug agents adhere to an “unwritten and discreet policy” in which they retain 70% of each drug seizure as “savings” and subsequently sell the drugs for profit.
“‘Yung sinasabi nilang nire-recycle daw, kung mapatunayan ‘yan, dapat po ay managot, dapat po ay tuldukan ang practice na ‘yan. Sa pagdinig po kahapon sa Senado, hindi po katanggap-tanggap na gagawin pong bayad sa informant ang ni-recycle na droga po,” he added.
