A senior lawmaker hit the Philippine National Police last Wednesday for its slow pace investigation on the anomaly-laden seizure of 990 kilos of shabu in Tondo, Manila, involving alleged “ninja cops.”
Surigao del Norte Rep. Robert “Ace” S. Barbers, panel chairman, said that since October 8 last year, the public, including concerned lawmakers have not been apprised clearly on what had transpired in the PNP’s internal investigations on the incident and who were the officers charged in court for their alleged attempts to recycle 42-kilos of shabu and cover-up the incident.
Dismissed Police Master Sergeant Rodolfo Mayo and his alleged accomplice Ney Atadero have been questioned by lawmakers. The two, however, invoked their respective right against self-incrimination.BARBERS said the committee seeks to be enlightened on the alleged attempts to cover up the arrest of Mayo as well as his release and his role in the Pasig operation on the night in question.
