President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. on Tuesday announced the internal review of police officials for possible links to illegal drugs will be concluded in two weeks.
He noted the review conducted by a 5-man committee took some time to ensure the results of the review will be “just and fair.”
The President said he wants a mechanism to be put in place to hold accountable the police officials, who will be proven to be involved in illegal drugs. He urged the peace and order councils to address illegal drugs, loose firearms, and “warlordism” within their jurisdiction to help maintain local peace and order.
“It stems from the territorial fights over areas where drugs are distributed, who controls the drug trade in that area,” Marcos said.
