Marcos wants no replication of missing seized drugs from magnetic lifters - Castro
June 27, 2025
|Manila Bulletin
Malacañang hit back at Vice President Sara Duterte for criticizing the move of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. to witness the destruction of P9.48-billion seized illegal drugs, saying her father, former President Rodrigo Duterte, has also done it during his time.
Palace Press Officer and Communications Undersecretary Claire Castro on Thursday, June 26, defended Marcos' decision to witness the incineration of the illegal drugs, which the Vice President tagged as mere “photo ops.”
Castro said Marcos wanted to ensure that the illegal drugs were indeed destroyed and that they will not disappear, citing the alleged disappearance of shabu stuffed in magnetic lifters in 2018.
It was not for photo opportunities, but an act showing the people that the President is serious in fighting the proliferation of illegal drugs in the country, she added.
The Palace official also insisted that Marcos has an obligation to report to the people. She clapped back, saying “the President woke up early, went to work, and did not go on vacation.”
