The Philippine Star

January 19, 2025

These are the ones who didn't get away. As of last Thursday, 10 active and former members of the Philippine National Police were under the custody of various PNP units for the alleged staged seizure of 990 kilos of shabu valued at P6.7 billion in Tondo, Manila in October 2022. The 10, nine of whom were arrested while one surrendered, include a lieutenant colonel, a major, a captain and a lieutenant.

Of the 29 who were ordered arrested by a Manila regional trial court, 20 are still in the active service while the rest have retired, resigned or been dismissed from the PNP. They are accused of involvement in a "grand conspiracy" related to the drug bust in which then master sergeant Rodolfo Mayo Jr. of the PNP Drug Enforcement Group was arrested and then released. The highest-ranking officials implicated in the alleged conspiracy are former PNP operations chief Lt. Gen. Benjamin Santos Jr. and former PDEG director Brig. Gen. Narciso Domingo.
