Royina Garma: Alleged DDS cop and her ties to Rodrigo Duterte

Garma is under fire also because of her alleged connection to the Davao Death Squad and killings of Chinese drug lords

cried twice before lawmakers who ordered her detention over contempt. As the House wrapped its hearing near midnight on September 13, Garma burst into tears, and pleaded to be allowed to come home to her daughter “who’s waiting for me.”

Garma has become a clear target of the House quad committee. She is personally known to Duterte, having worked long years in the Davao City police under the former mayor. And there are enough skeletons in her closet that lead to Duterte.The current focus of the hearings is the killings of three Chinese drug lords who were detained at the Davao Penal Colony in 2016. Persons deprived of liberty were brought to the Batasang Pambansa — Leopoldo Tan Jr.

Garma denied the allegations. Answering a question from Kabataan Representative Raoul Manuel during the inquiry, Garma said: “I don’t know anything. I did not see anything. I’m explaining my answer based on my personal knowledge.” However, testimonies from whistleblowers directly link Garma to the DDS.. Lascañas said that Garma told him personally she handled a group of hitmen, and that she was following the directives of Duterte’s most trusted aide, now-senator Bong Go.

Lawmakers also extracted from Garma that it was Go who facilitated her application for PCSO chief. In the six years of Duterte, anyone who wants a post is known to have to pass through Go. “I talked to the president personally. tell everything to Bong Go. I gave all the reports to Bong Go. He was there and Bong Go didn’t do anything,” said Osmeña.Garma is not top of mind of those who want to exact accountability for the drug war. Aside from Duterte, there is Go, Dela Rosa, and other past PNP chiefs like Oscar Albayalde.
